Adeline Ruiz, RN 4th Floor, Saint Agnes Medical Center Fresno, California

Adeline was nominated by an appreciative patient:

"I immediately felt comfortable with Adeline from the first time she entered my room. Adeline made me feel important. Being a diabetic, it is important that I have regular snacks. She always made sure that I had a nutritious snack before bedtime. She is the first and only nurse that ever made sure this happened. I felt completely safe and assured under her care. Adeline took the time to listen to me. SHE IS #1!"

It was the extra special touches Adeline delivered in her care that stuck out to the patient who nominated her.
