For this month's Humans of Stamford Health, we're spotlighting Maria Mendez, a clinical assistant at Stamford Hospital. Maria was nominated for the compassion she shows to our patients in her daily work and for offering to mentor her fellow colleagues who may be new at the hospital.

"I think my compassion comes from always wanting to do more for others, especially because I am the oldest of my family, so I always had to be so selfless with my family. I've learned to create boundaries so I can be, you know, selfish because I'm very selfless. Being selfish is something I had to learn. I didn't realize that I would give a lot... I just wanted to be there for others, just like my mother who was a nurse in Mexico."
