We want to recognize Zoe for her nursing skills and her compassion and gentle nature. Mom seemed to relax and be more cooperative when she was her nurse. We also saw that she always made sure to do everything on the list and in a way that interrupted her rest the least. We appreciate how she explained what she was doing and why, so we could also help. Zoe paid attention to Mom's level of comfort and suggested comforting things like washing her hair when there was time. While we feel that Mom had good care from everyone, we especially recognize Zoe who had a special combination of talent and sensitivity that made her stand out. We are thrilled to nominate her.

All the nurses are sweet and caring. They are there for you and your needs. Zoe took very good care of me and was wonderful. Thank you.

There was an emergency with my roommate. Zoe assisted and responded with professional speed to assist her. She was so caring, compassionate, loving, and respectful to not only my roommate's needs, but to me as well. I felt so safe and was treated like a VIP by her. It was obvious she enjoys her job. She always had a smile on her face. I believe she should be the nurse of the year. She is loving, caring, compassionate, respectful helping her patients. I will never forget her.
