January 2026 Honoree
Rachel Szarkowitz, RN
Rachel performed her duties as a nurse that went above and beyond common care. I was to have a procedure done, and Rachel immediately picked up on my apprehension about this procedure. She asked questions kindly, which prompted concerns that I had. She said she would look into the necessity of this procedure. She left the room and came back with written documentation from medical notes that I had not seen before. This confirmed the necessity. She gave me a hug as I got teary-eyed. Rachel is an exceptional and professional nurse. She was very aware of my needs and met them without being asked!
Thank you, Rachel, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
