Why do you believe the nominee should be recognized or honored?
She works on the frontline in the ER, when she leaves for work, she lives behind her husband and her two young boys ages 3 and 4. I'm sure that alone is stressful.
What’s one thing you want everyone to know about your hero?:
She is a hard working dedicated nurse who takes her job seriously, been told by many of her colleagues. Sure at times can be extremely stressful, knowing what she leaves behind. I think what makes her a great nurse is her patients come first and she is driven to take care of them.
Thank you for all you do, Amanda!
