Mickenzie exemplified every aspect of what a caring and compassionate person should possess to fill the honorable role of nurse.
Mickenzie has been an excellent nurse during my recovery after my fourth C-section. She’s taken exceptional care of both my baby and myself, always staying on top of all our vital checks. I am unfathomably grateful for all of her emotional support during such a difficult time when COVID made it so my husband and children were home most of the time, and I was very alone. She truly deserves this award because she’s exemplified every aspect of what a caring and compassionate person should possess to fill the honorable role of nurse, and has displayed it in such a beautifully natural and graceful way that I will forever remember and be grateful.
