This week’s ‘Nurse of the Week’ is Amber Boyd. Amber is a Pediatric ICU Nurse and was recently featured onToday.com. Amber was the primary nurse for a newborn named Nicole who suffered from omphalocele, a rare abdominal wall defect in which the intestines, liver, and occasionally other organs remain outside of the abdomen. Nicole became a ward of the state after her mother was unable to care for her and Amber and her husband decided to step in and foster and then adopt the newborn.
‘I think [Amber’s] just a very selfless personality. It is very much in her nature.
