October 2016 Honoree
yuri velasquez, RN
When I asked her name she responded with the most pleasant smile and asked me if I would remember, I told her, "I will remember her name as long as I live." Her smile and positive attitude are one of the main reasons I'm in good spirits and on my way to a fast and long-awaited recovery. I have been in here for a week already and every time Yuri is assigned to be my nurse I already know that I have nothing to worry about, cause I am in great hand. She never has to be reminded of her duties and love her sense of humor, she lights up every room when she walks in. I saw a couple of situations she was put in with other patients and she kept her cool, she is going places in this field.
Thank you, Yuri, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
