Zoe Ramos is our Nursing Supervisor, but she cares deeply about her staff. She checks on all staff before leaving when her shift is over and steps in to help when we are short-staffed, even if her shift has already ended.

One patient said, "You are one of the best nurses here. I appreciate how you have advised me for my upcoming discharge." This was when she was educating a patient who was coming up for parole.

Daily, she demonstrates superior quality care not just to patients but also to the staff she works with.
