November 2025

Jessica Gerhart, RN
Case Management

“My family and I were very concerned for my brother’s well-being. The prospect of managing his care long-distance could have been overwhelming if it weren’t for Jessica’s professionalism, conscientiousness, persistence and, most of all, her compassion. Jessica helped with a number of challenges and showed great care for our concerns and anxieties throughout an extremely stressful and worrisome time for us all. We are more grateful than we can say for Jessica.”

Mark Mitchell, RN
Emergency Department

“Mark took an hour out of his day to sit with a military veteran with PTSD who had experienced a recent string of losses. The patient was adamant that he just needed someone to talk to. With his own military background, Mark offered not only a friendly shoulder, but compassion and understanding. He offered reassurance and guidance. Mark is an amazing staff member who always goes above and beyond for every patient and staff member.”

Sherri Angell, RN
Women and Children’s Services

“Sherri is always so positive and joyful to work with when times are tough on shift and remains optimistic through it all. She shares her wealth of knowledge by training new nurses, stays involved with unit updates and maintains an ever-learning mentality. Sherri is one of the hardest working nurses I know and I admire her so much for her work ethic and kindness.”
