July 2026 Honoree
Steven A. Smith, BSN, RN, PHN, PCCN
My 10-year-old daughter came into the emergency department with an anaphylactic reaction, something she had never experienced before.
She was very sick but was terrified of medical intervention. Steven was so patient, taking the time to calm her down and explain everything that was going on. She is typically combative during medical interventions, but because of his willingness to listen to her and follow her lead, she felt comfortable and trusted him.
He was very compassionate and thorough. My daughter was in excellent hands.

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