👋🏼 Hi friends!!!
🦸🏽 It's everyone's favorite day of the week!!! That's right, it's.....
🌟 Wonder Woman Wednesday 🌟
Today’s spotlight shines on Debbie Hawkins, a woman who has been one of the most influential people in my nursing career, whether she knows it or not. 💙
🩷 Debbie has a way of showing up exactly when she’s needed most. In the midst of high-acuity patient situations, when stress levels are at their peak, she somehow manages to be the calm in the storm. She steps in to guide, support, and steady those who are feeling overwhelmed — all while keeping the entire unit flowing with ease. That kind of leadership is rare, and Debbie makes it look effortless.
🙏🏼 What makes her even more remarkable is the way she makes people feel seen and valued. Whether it’s a thoughtful token of appreciation or simply the kindness in her words, she never misses an opportunity to remind others of their worth. Even in the toughest of conversations, Debbie leads with positivity, grace, and a heart full of compassion.
🧑🧑🧒🧒 But beyond her professional brilliance, Debbie is also a fun-loving mom and proud grandmom who truly lights up when she’s out and about with her family. The joy she radiates in those moments spills over into everything she does, reminding those around her that life is meant to be celebrated.
🫶🏽 Debbie, thank you for being a role model, a mentor, and a constant source of encouragement. You’ve shown me (and so many others) what it means to lead with both strength and heart. Today, we celebrate you for the Wonder Woman you are — in nursing, in family, and in life. 💪✨❤️
