Rhonda was nominated by a fellow nurse for the compassion she showed to a patient who comes to the Ambulatory Procedure Center two times each week. When the patient came to the center one week early so she could leave town to be with her son in Texas who was dying of cancer, the nurse noticed that Rhonda, after work had come back to be with the patient.

Rhonda knew the patient had no one to stay with her during her infusion and she was grieving terribly so she prayed with, talked with, listened to, and shared tears because she is a compassionate and caring nurse.
