Becky has been a nurse at Audubon County Memorial Hospital since 1989. Becky currently works full time in the Outpatient Specialty Clinic and Surgery Department. Over the years, she has contributed to all aspects of the patient care spectrum possible at ACMH, formerly working in the Med/Surg, Emergency Room, and Obstetrical areas.

Becky is quick to develop a good rapport with her coworkers, patients, and the providers she works with. She treats all patients fairly and with respect. She helps to make each person she encounters feel like they are special.

Becky is flexible and hardworking; she is always willing to trade a day with a co-worker or work extra hours in times of need. She is accountable for her actions and ensures that her assignments and tasks are completed. Becky especially enjoys “clean the OR day” and takes pleasure in listening (and singing) to some good tunes while cleaning and dusting the nooks and crannies of our surgical department. She calls this her “mental health” day!

Becky has developed strong clinical assessment skills over the years, and is particularly adept at airway management and in assisting anesthesia induction in the OR and ER.

Our physicians and mid-levels seek her guidance and view her as a credible source of clinical information. Becky is a strong leader and is often assigned to mentor new staff due to her patience and expertise.

A fellow RN had this to say about Becky: "As I watch Becky go about her day, you can see that she enjoys delivering patient care. She can make her patients light up with a smile when she talks to them, and they know that she will try to meet their needs and give them quality care. Becky exemplifies what a nurse is: kind, always compassionate, smart, and calm under pressure."

The Surgery & Specialty Clinics Director (and Becky’s supervisor) stated, “I first met Becky in 1997 when I started here as an LPN…Becky and I have spent many hours working as a team and have shared many moments together that only fellow nurses can appreciate.”
