1st nomination from leadership:
Linda is committed to providing excellent care and goes above and beyond to ensure quality and kindness to the patients in our unit. She remains professional, calm and level headed during emergent situations. She is a team player, always looking for opportunities to help her co-workers out. She takes the time to sit and be with her patients, whether it be to listen or hold their hand. She is a valuable member of our team and we are blessed to have her.

2nd nomination from a coworker:
At change of shift early one Sunday she received a patient - one of our dear senior residents. The patient was complaining of chest discomfort and palpitations and was awaiting cardiology consultation. Linda went to the bedside, established raptor with the patient and her family, offering comfort and concern. She gently assisted the patient to the bathroom, gave her morning meds. Patient and family were smiling and the patient was pain free. Linda never has a negative word, only "how can I and who needs help?"
