Penny is an excellent, caring, and compassionate nurse who cares deeply about her patients and families, as well as the well-being of people in the community. She dedicated over three-quarters of her life to healthcare including 40-plus years within RGHS. Not only is Penny an outstanding clinician, but she is also a very reliable and flexible employee and, will always respond to a call to duty when our department (and many others) are short-staffed and need help. Penny is also a pillar in the community through her many acts of volunteerism whether it be cooking and fundraising for our veterans at the VFW, covering shifts at the hospice home (Laurel House) or helping with the hospital health fairs.
