My husband was a 52-year-old cardiac failure patient with COVID. Alma was the nurse who was with us every day. I watched Alma take on and off her PPE every time she was with us. She did so without complaint, without even looking like it was wearing on her. She talked to my husband as if he was her best friend. She held my hand all while giving my husband the best care. She was such an incredible nurse but most of all she was such an incredible human being. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Thank you, Alma, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
