This is a huge step in the right direction. We can now start planning and making sure the site is appropriate.

It is better to take many small steps in the right direction than to make a great leap forward only to stumble backward.

I have really relished this experience with the Planning Commission.

You have to listen to what resonates within your own gut. You find your direction there. Your voice comes out.

Nurses are with patients 10-12 hours per day giving old-fashioned care. This is a chance to say thank you to them.

There's nothing like a personal story to bring home how important the work is that you do. It's easy for me to say you do a great job, but if a patient, a family member comes back and says you made a difference, there's nothing like that.
