His nominators highlighted a recent case when he spent extra time with a hospice patient whose family could not visit.

Another team member shared the following about Young during the nomination process: "Matt is a selfless, excellent team player, and a nurse worth boasting about. I am encouraged by his leadership and thankful to be a part of a team with him!"
