September 2026 Honoree
Amy Teate, BSN,RN
I had the opportunity to follow Amy during my clinical rotation. Quite frankly, she has been one of the most inspiring nurses I have had the honor of learning from. She included me in everything she did and did her best to explain anything I asked about.
She showed compassion to each of her patients, doing her best to comfort them when they were nervous about the procedures and taking the time to explain what she was doing and why - keeping the patients in the loop of what was going on.
One thing in particular that stood out to me, that I eventually hope to be able to do, is that she was always two steps ahead of the situation. She handled high-stress scenarios with the fluidity one gets from years of experience and the knowledge of exactly how to navigate each situation.
She went above and beyond for each of her patients to ensure they were as comfortable as possible given the circumstances.

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