August 2026 Honoree
Florine Fernandes, MSN, RN, CMSRN
She is sweet and helpful. She does things she isn't required to do to help me. She is going above and beyond the call of duty. She has a gracious demeanor and a lovely smile.
***
She was very attentive, nice, and caring. She made sure to ask if I was in pain and stayed on top of all my meds. She is a great asset to the staff here. There's nothing like a compassionate person in the medical field. It makes a big difference in the recovery.
***
I want to recognize the exceptional care that this nurse gave my mom. Her kindness, patience, and gentle presence comforted my mom. Thank you for treating her with such compassion and dignity. It means more than words can say.
***
She was very attentive and compassionate to my fiancé, extremely patient, and kept me informed at every step.
***
This nurse made a meaningful difference in my husband's care through her compassion, professionalism, and dedication. She constantly treated him with kindness and respect. We are truly grateful for the exceptional care she provided.
***
She was so kind and caring to us. My husband has dementia, and he gets very anxious and agitated, especially in the afternoon. He kept telling me I had to stay with him all day and all night, but I was exhausted and needed to go home, take a shower, and sleep in my bed. She was so comforting and reassured me that she would take good care of my husband so I could go home and get a good night’s sleep. I felt confident and reassured that my husband was in good hands, so I went home and slept. She was always smiling and was kind and friendly. I really appreciated her care.
***
During my mother's stay, all the nurses and assistants went above and beyond. One nurse was so pleasant and hardworking, and she did her job with dedication, making her patients feel like family. We appreciate the wonderful help we received from her and other members of the 3rd floor, who make patients feel at home and comfortable during their hospital stay.
