December 2025 Honoree
Menna Ismail
Outstanding Compassion at the Bedside:
Menna consistently demonstrates a level of compassion that sets her apart. During one rotation, she cared for an elderly patient experiencing significant anxiety and confusion. Menna sat with her, holding her hand, speaking calmly, and ensuring she felt safe and heard. The patient later shared that Menna made her “feel human again,” a testament to her empathetic approach.
Menna is a strong advocate for her patients. She identified subtle changes in a post-operative patient who appeared increasingly uncomfortable and hesitant to speak up. Menna immediately brought her concerns to the care team, resulting in timely intervention and pain management adjustments. Her vigilance and advocacy contributed directly to improved patient outcomes.
