January 2026 Honoree
Onyinyechukwu Okoli, RN
Onyi took over in the evening when she was dealing with my husband, who was dealing with the loss of vision. My husband was also dehydrated and could not walk due to swollen feet and pain. He was angry at everything that happened.
Onyi was amazing as she displayed her patience and tolerance with a man who was somewhat struggling with accepting his situation. She kept a smile on her face at all times and showed her care and concern more than anyone.
Even though there are serious injuries and situations in the ER, Onyi helped us believe that my husband was the only patient there! She’s a very special young lady who went above and beyond her call of nursing, and we were blessed to have her that night.

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