We’re honored to share that Betsy Cabrera, RN, from our Centennial clinic, has been nominated for the 2025 DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses—her third nomination!

A longtime patient expressed their deep gratitude for Betsy’s care and dedication:

💬 “Betsy has been treating me for MDS since 2017. She always answers my questions in a manner I can understand and there has been a lot of questions. When I walk into the treatment center she always welcomes me with a warm smile and a comforting demeanor. Betsy just makes me feel better before I leave. I have noticed that she treats everyone with that same care. If something isn't quite right with my meds or schedule she will get to the bottom of it and get it corrected before I leave. I just want to thank her for always going the extra mile for me. Betsy has always been a ray of sunshine in my darkest moments and I want to thank her with all my heart.”

Betsy’s commitment to going the extra mile exemplifies the compassion and professionalism that defines RMCC nursing. We’re grateful for the difference she makes every day.

We’re proud to recognize Katrina Sondermann, RN, from our Sky Ridge clinic as a 2025 DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses recipient!

One longtime patient shared how Katrina changed the course of their care:

💬 “I’ve been an RMCC patient for over 15 years. Katrina found me in the data and identified me as a candidate for a clinical trail. She explained the medication and possible side affects and benefits in detail and with care and compassion. After lots of screenings, I was approved for the trial. This has given me a new hope for healing and remission. Katrina is always available to answer questions and advocate for me. She is a blessing!”

From thoughtful education to ongoing support, Katrina embodies what it means to advocate for patients. We’re grateful for the difference she makes every day.
