I worked with Amanda for 5 years in the ER. I was new to the ER and she taught me a lot. She was amazing nurse that always had a smile on her face even though it might have been a hectic and busy night, She always was there if you needed help or a question abut what needed to done to help a patient, she took great pride in being a ER nurse. I will miss her positive attitude and smile. I truly sorry for her family especially her daughter, son, and husband.
