Extraordinary skill
"Nursing is more than just a profession to me," shares Mercy Hospital’s Meika McMillan-Mendez, RN. "It’s a calling rooted in compassion, purpose and the desire to serve others during the most vulnerable moments of their lives. As an operating room nurse, I am part of an extraordinary surgical team where every member plays a critical role in ensuring patient safety and delivering quality care."
"Working in the operating room, I find fulfillment in the technical skill and precision required in surgery, but what truly drives me is the opportunity to be a source of comfort and calm for patients before they go under anesthesia," she continues.
"Helping others is at the core of who I am, and nursing gives me a unique chance to make a difference every single day. Mercy Hospital has shaped me into a stronger, more compassionate nurse, and I’m proud to be part of this mission-driven team." 💙
