“I love Blue Ridge because Blue Ridge is home. The care that I received at Blue Ridge as a grieving mother changed the entire trajectory of my life. From the lowest point in my life, Blue Ridge gave me hope when they hired me as a registrar. Blue Ridge then sparked a passion I didn’t know existed when they allowed me to transition into my role as a tech in the ER, and they ignited flames of purpose when they hired me as a registered nurse in the emergency department. I love Blue Ridge because Blue Ridge will always be home to me.”
