For some people, making others feel comfortable comes naturally to them. When Jody Collins, RN, was 16 years old, she felt a sense of peace in providing comfort to her terminally ill grandmother. It was that experience that made her want to help others in the best way possible — as a nurse. As a registered nurse caring for patients and their families on Monongahela Valley Hospital’s Medical/Surgical/Rehabilitation units, she strives to make their experiences the best possible. For her dedication to patients, families and co-workers, Ms. Collins was named the 2021 Cameos of Caring Awardee at the Hospital’s May 6 Cameos Breakfast. She was one of 12 distinguished MVH nurses who were nominated by their peers for this award.
