Gabbie Banez, NICU Nurse
Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital
Nominated by Marita Ankobiah

"Gabbie was another one of the wonderful primary nurses for our family. We were overjoyed when Gabbie agreed to be Atarah's primary nurse. It was clear that she truly enjoyed working with Atarah and providing care for her babies.

I specifically remember one week when Atarah was scheduled for surgery, and Gabbie chose to pick up an extra shift just so she could be there to check in on her. I was deeply moved and impressed by her dedication and kindness during that time. I felt at ease knowing Gabbie was on shift.

She is such a sweet person and a delight to work with. Gabbie took exceptional care of Atarah, and I am incredibly grateful for her support..”
