“I’m ecstatic about this honor, but I am also humbled because there are so many other nurses who are equally qualified for this recognition. I always work on giving the best possible care, and my wonderful staff supports my efforts by emulating my approach to delivering the best healthcare solutions. I have been able to bring new innovative services to the district, so my staff also has numerous opportunities to learn new skills as well. I wish to thank Dr. Pat Alvoet, President of the Texas Nurses Association District 8 in San Antonio, for believing in me and nominating me for this honor. I consider it a privilege to work for our community and the students and employees of United ISD”, said Rosales.
