November 2018 Honoree
tam yunker, RN
Tam Yunker, RN is an extraordinary nurse. Her nomination described how she cared for a patient experiencing serious medication side effects. Tam's astute assessment and quick actions ensured the patient was safe and received medical attention, and that the patient's worried family were kept informed. Another example involved how Tam set up medication monitoring/adjustments for a patient traveling to another country. Her Clinical Supervisor and nominator emphasized that Tam demonstrates this level of expert nursing care for all her patients and described her as "extremely committed to her profession and our patients." We are so thankful for Tam - for who she is and all she does for our patients and their families at Levine Cancer Institute.
Thank you, Tam, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
