'She Cares About All Her Patients': Mill Valley Hero

MILL VALLEY, CA — When times are tough, heroes emerge. We all know someone who's making a difference right now as we live through unprecedented and changing times.

Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize these heroes making a difference in their communities. Together with Ring, we're working to let all your neighbors know about these outstanding people and their stories.

This submission comes from Kenneth Wachtel, who nominated his daughter, Jacqueline Michelle Wachtel of Mill Valley.

Name: Jacqueline Michelle Wachtel

Hometown: Mill Valley

Hero's job: Health Care

Reason for recognition: Jacqueline rises before the sun to go to work as an RN at Davies
Hospital in San Francisco to help her patients. Some have COVID-19. She treats them all with great care, respect and without fear. Because of the pandemic, she has had to delay her wedding a
year.

One thing to know: She cares about all her patients and wants to help them get well.

Thank you for all you do, Jacqueline!
