National Nurses Day is
May 6th and we want to celebrate by highlighting the great job local nurses are doing in Western Pennsylvania! Here are a few of the nominees that were submitted. Each will receive a gift card to Sewickley Spa!
Diana B. was nominated by her sister Becky.
I am nominating my Sister Diana because she is the most compassionate nurse. She has spent this last year working directly with Covid patients. She works at Allegheny General Hospital as a float nurse tending to all ICU s and she has been in the heart of covid since the start. She volunteered to help set up a specific unit for Covid patients and was able to teach her co-workers the proper protocols when treating Covid patients. Most recently she has been working in the vaccination clinic. I think she deserves a little spa day for her hard work.
