I have been in several different mental health institutions and have been on 103-7 for 2 weeks. During my time here, I have witnessed no less than three severely traumatized survivors who express their displeasure and emotions through very verbal and angry outbursts, including threats of violence. Mariah always has a smile and, from my perspective, has never lashed out at any of the patients or co-workers. Her bedside manner is phenomenal, and she knows how to diffuse a situation without the use or misuse of force. She is great.

Mariah receives a lot of kudos and praise from other Veterans, and her peers, regarding her bedside manner and interacting with Veterans in mental health crises.

Thank you, Mariah, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
