LORENA HEBRADO

Lorena Hebrado of St. Mary's Hospital for Children is a caring and dedicated Manhattan field nurse.

As this video shows (click the image above), Lorena provided a telehealth visit for a patient and his caregiver all while using sign language. She made the patient feel extremely comfortable during the visit and was able to ask him to show her how he washes his hands singing happy birthday all while signing.

Lorena reinforced infection control measures inside and outside the home. The patient was so happy to see Lorena and chatting back and forth with her via telehealth using sign language.

Lorena was patient and conducted a professional nursing visit all while signing back and forth between caregiver, patient and nurse.

A #HomeCareHero puts her unique skills to work in helping others, and Lorena Hebrado embodies that ethic.
