👋 Meet Esther Tibbs, RN from our Emergency Department.
Esther is our DAISY Honoree for Extraordinary Nurses! A very big congratulations on your recognition! 👏🎉

Her nominee wrote: 📣"Esther's calling was to be a nurse! I have never had such a wonderful experience in an emergency room. My mom came in very disoriented and combative. Esther was so gentle and showed my mom so much grace. She was very patient and let her calm down every time she got anxious before proceeding with the next procedure.

She was caring and loving to my mother like it was her own. She was genuinely concerned with my mom's health, as well as my mental well-being. This woman had a very special touch about her and deserves to be celebrated. Thank you so much Esther! You left an impression on us and we are so grateful for you.”

Esther, we are so proud to have you on our team!
