Nursing Exellence Award 2021 (Teaching)
The son of a father whom has been teaching and coaching for 40 plus years this was a highlight. This new grad RN was willing to learn and wanted to be exposed to as many teaching possibilities possible. Patient learning lessons many of them her firsts. From common nursing skills, working with law enforcement, and to loss of life. Teaching and coaching has been a passion, to guide a person and leading them to their "eureka moment" makes one smile. Shortly years after she was awarded Nurse of The Year, it makes one look forward to teaching the next person.
