“Nan is an excellent CNA. She goes above and beyond for the residents. She takes initiative to help her co-workers without being asked to do so. She completes all her assignments with no hesitation. She always has a positive attitude.”

“Nan goes above and beyond for our residents on 1C. As Nan’s charge nurse, I would highly recommend her for this achievement. She picks up extra workload without complaint. She has a very positive attitude even when staff call off or assignment is heavy. Nan always makes sure all residents’ needs are met, volunteers to train new employees, and is highly deserving of this recognition.”
