February 2025 DAISY Award Recipient

Lupe-Pesantez, RN DAISY Awardee

 

Guadalupe “Lupe” Pesantez, RN, 4th Vineyard Tower Surgical/Oncology
DAISY Award – February 2025

Lupe has been a valued member of the San Antonio Care Team for 20 years; 19 of those as a certified nursing assistant. She recently attended Cal Baptist University to pursue her nursing degree, and we are proud to say that she joined our new grad program last year as an oncology nurse. Lupe has worked hard, and in the process has become an amazing nurse! She quietly leads with care and compassion. She was nominated by a patient who had developed complications after surgery. “Lupe showed compassion, patience, and empathy for my situation. She made me feel as though I was her only patient and that my well-being was her main concern. There was never a moment I felt she was too busy or that I was a bother. Thank you for hiring such an excellent nurse and such a genuine human being. Lupe certainly chose the right career path.” Lupe is not stopping at an RN degree; she is currently working on her master’s degree as well. Congratulations, Lupe!
