Whitney’s nomination came from a patient who recognized her for taking on an extra project during their stay. Whitney researched and created a personalized playlist of brain wave sounds to support the healing of a patient’s central nervous system. On a particularly tough day for the patient, Whitney stayed by his side and gave him the focused attention he needed to feel safe and supported. Her presence and compassion helped ease his fears and lift his spirits when it was most needed.

Whitney’s colleagues weren’t surprised by her dedicated care. One shared, “She exemplifies kindness and empathy to all of her patients and always goes beyond her routine duties to create an exceptional patient experience."
