Lizzy’s journey through pregnancy and birth was filled with gratitude, emotion and unforgettable care. From her first visit to her postpartum check-in, she felt “safe, supported and deeply cared for.” 🩷

She credits Dr. Nicole Salvo, OB-GYN at Aurora Sinai Medical Center, as “by far the most exceptional provider I have ever had,” sharing that “her passion for her profession and her dedication to her patients shines through in every interaction. The level of care she provided was extraordinary. Dr. Salvo made me feel seen, heard and empowered throughout my pregnancy and birth.”

Lizzy also reflects on her experience with other Aurora team members — from the welcoming smiles at the front desk, especially Marsha’s, to the nurses at her routine visits who shared many laughs and tears with her and her husband, to the labor and delivery team: Anna, Sarah, Hannah, Katie and our CNAs. She says, “Each person touched our lives in a lasting way. I will never forget the tenderness, compassion and strength they poured into us. These women carried me through the most transformative event of my life, and I will be forever grateful.”

Now, baby Leo is 9 weeks old and thriving. “He is our sunshine boy,” Lizzy says. “I couldn’t wait to introduce him to the very team who helped bring him into this world.”

We’re honored to be part of Lizzy’s story and proud to celebrate the compassion and expertise of our Aurora teams.

Maggie, Nurse of the Year at Aurora Psychiatric Hospital, serves as a registered nurse lead at ambulatory behavioral health clinics. She demonstrates key professional practice values, notably safety and clinical excellence. She actively engages in professional development through the RN ExCEL program, shares knowledge of new treatments and leads her team effectively during changes.

“I have always been drawn to working in health care because I enjoy learning about the different aspects of human biology. I was fortunate to find myself in the nursing field where I can do what I love: teaching and advocating for patients and teammates. Each nursing role I've gone into has helped shape my professional growth, but being a preceptor has been most impactful. Since self-reflection is so critical to nursing practice, I encourage new teammates to reflect on their own practices. In doing so, I get the opportunity to reflect on my own. This allows me to see where I succeed and in what areas I can improve.”
