Do you know someone who is already making a difference in the lives of others by doing their part to make medicine better? Nominate them as a Hero. Heroes might be health care professionals, or members of the community. They might be well-known leaders, or someone who quietly leads by example. Nominate the person you feel is making the world of medicine a better place to be.
This person is a hero because:
She goes well above her duties to help patients of other departments
Willow's Story:
A patient was admitted to Parkland Health Center. There were no family or friends to help during either of this patient's admissions. The patient needed help as the patient's dog was home alone and the temperatures outside were below freezing and in the single digits to below zero at night. Willow Beal, RN, Parkland Health Center ICU, offered to help the patient during each admission. She did not know the patient, did not know the patient's family, did not even know the exact circumstances, but did know she wanted to help the patient and the patient's best friend, his dog. KUDOS to Willow Beal!!!
