Tracy was off work the night she responded and went above and beyond. We had a domestic violence case where two baby boys were involved. That night, I was working with a Wings representative trying to find a shelter for the mother and her children. We finally found her a safe place but could not arrange transport because we did not have car seats available. I left that night with the plans of keeping the victims overnight until car seats could be obtained. When I got home, I reached out to as many contacts as possible looking for car seats. Tracy immediately responded. When she called me, however, she was already driving to ABMC with the seats. I ended the night feeling immense gratitude and love for Tracy’s passion and tenacity to serve. She did this without hesitation and exemplifies the heart of what nursing is about.

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