We were honored to provide a tribute to Carol Sheffer, RN last Thursday evening. We even got to participate in the release of butterflies in her honor.
Carol was a friend and former colleague to many of us. She graduated from Lone Star College in 2003 as an LVN and began her nursing career at Memorial Hermann Northeast Hospital as a new graduate on the Medical-Surgical unit. Carol demonstrated genuine concern for her patients’ well-being, often caring for them as if they were family. Her passion for nursing inspired her to return to Lone Star College, where she earned her RN degree in 2010. Shortly afterward, she transferred to Memorial Hermann The Woodlands Hospital, where she worked on the Orthopedic, Surgical, and Trauma units. In 2021, Carol moved to the Surgery Center, where she continued to be a positive influence on both her coworkers and patients.
Carol was a compassionate, dedicated, and highly skilled nurse whose attentive care and empathy made a lasting difference in the lives of countless patients. Her contributions to the nursing profession and the impact she made on those around her will be remembered and cherished by all who were fortunate enough to work alongside her.
