Deb Yonker, RN, PACU
“NVRH is an outstanding employer. I have been a nurse there for almost 23 years. Actually, since becoming a nurse, I have worked only there. My thoughts were I would leave at some point to broaden my skills and see what other hospitals had to offer. It never happened because at NVRH I found the support, encouragement, teamwork, and skill building that have kept me here and happy.”
