A pump plug malfunctioned and resulted in a small fire in a patient's room. This room was occupied by a new mother and her baby. Due to the quick reaction of Rebekah, no harm came to the patient or her family. Rebekah sprang into action and immediately knew what to do. She personally extinguished the fire which re-sparked three times, all while ensuring the patient was safe.
