'She Puts Her Life On The Line': Beaumont Hero

BEAUMONT, CA — When times are tough, heroes emerge. We all know someone who's making a difference right now as we live through unprecedented times. Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize these everyday heroes.

This submission comes from Olivia Liendo of Beaumont, who nominated Priscilla Uribe, also of Beaumont:

Is the nominee considered an “essential worker”?:
Yes

What does the nominee do for work?:
RN (Nursing)

Why do you believe the nominee should be recognized or honored?
Her hard work specially now with this Coronavirus. She puts her life on the line and is glad she can help.

What’s one thing you want everyone to know about your hero?:
My daughter is a very hard worker. She has three girls and a husband to take of. Works 12 hour shifts and still makes time for what she wanted to accomplish. She always said I don’t want to stop where I’m at. I’m going back and getting my Masters of Science in Nursing. And she did we are so proud of her.

Thank you for all you do, Priscilla!
