I would like to recommend Kristin D. for employee of the month and year. Since I’ve been here Kristin has made me feel like part of the Radiology team. She never hesitated to answer the phone if I had a question. She has an infectious personality and is missed when she takes off. She has always shown patience and professionalism while explaining radiology procedures, and introducing me to fellow staff, and in the community. She is an example of kindness and caring to patients and helps them relax during radiology exams; I’ve witnessed countless times patients are smiling when Kristin has finished. She is a vital part of the Radiology department and the Hospital. Again, I would like to recommend Kristin for employee of the month and year.

Here's what her nominators said about her:
Heidi Johnson, FNP:
Angie was asked to help with a patient's pain and anxiety management at the end of life and did such a beautiful job of helping the patient pass peacefully. She answered the patient's significant other's questions, comforted both he and the patient, and overall assured that this end-of-life patient had a peaceful passing.

I would like to nominate Angie for the Daisy Award, recognizing her for her compassion and dedication to improving the lives of others. Angie embodies the spirit of kindness and empathy that is truly inspiring. She creates an environment of trust and healing that uplifts everyone around her. Angie gets to know each and every one of her patients, she will sit with them, hold their hand and listens. You can hear her laughter coming from her patient's rooms. I'll watch her. She plays cards, puts puzzles together, and even finds them donated clothes. One time she went home and got a pair of shoes for a patient who had none. Today one of her patients wanted a piece of cherry pie. He was very happy! in Angie we see the very best of what a nurse can be. Compassionate healer, and unwavering advocate to all. It is an honor to nominate Angie VandenPlas, RN for this well-deserved recognition.
Angie’s compassion, dedication and genuine care for her patients, colleagues, and community make this award so well deserved. Congratulations, Angie!!!
Share your story of what your nurse has meant to you, and your nurse may be selected to receive this very meaningful recognition.
