December 2025 Honoree
Michelle Menchaca, RN
Michelle fits all the recognition standards of “skillful and compassionate" care that nurses provide every day.
I was hospitalized in October 2025 for five days with Michelle as my nurse for three evenings. She always had a smile as she came into my room, fully professionally prepared, efficient, and willing to get whatever I needed. She never left my room without asking if there was anything else I needed or if she could do anything else for me. On a busy evening, she even took time to walk the hall with me.
Miracles happen as well! One evening, when I experienced a syncopal episode, I believe she saved my life when she walked by my room and decided to make an extra check. She found me, quickly called the Emergency Response Team, and assisted in bringing me back. We both believe God was in this moment.
I am grateful to Michelle for her exceptional care. An excellent nurse doing an excellent job. With a grateful heart, I want to recognize Michelle for her expertise and care in a stressful profession. A wonder, skilled nurse indeed!
Best wishes, prayers, and blessings, Michelle, as you continue your career.
