Sharon was honored for her patient-centered approach to care and the empathy and compassion she demonstrates daily.

Sharon is a patient advocate who will leave no stone unturned to help a patient. She is a remarkable nurse who has been the cornerstone of the Community Health Team since its inception.

Sharon is an active member of the Rutland County Caregiver Coalition, a community support system for caregivers. She brings a voice to loved ones and caregivers whose task is insurmountable and seldom recognized. She is an advocate and a leader who fosters conversations that can be difficult to have and has the skill set to address a person as a whole rather than just a diagnosis.
