Sandee Padilla, BSN, RN

Last month my mother was admitted for 3 days. She has been admitted on/off here. Last month my mother was admitted with/ Sandee as her nurse. Watching Sandee settling her in her room was a joy to watch. Sandee was kind, compassionate, and very respectful. This was the first time I witnessed a nurse care for my mother as if I was caring for her.

As a daughter/child, you want to see your parents cared for in that manner. I am very close to my mother and am her main caretaker. So I was very grateful for Sandee's above-and-beyond professionalism. I nominated Sandee for this award for her skills, knowledge, and professionalism in how to be a nurse. She definitely chose the right career!
