At BrightStar Care of Phoenix/Tempe, we take immense pride in recognizing the exceptional individuals who make a profound difference in the lives of our clients. This year, we are honored to present the LifeSaver Award for Exceptional Nursing to Shonte Washington, a dedicated and highly skilled nurse whose commitment to patient care exemplifies the very best in home health.
About the LifeSaver Award
The LifeSaver Award for Exceptional Nursing is given to a nurse who goes above and beyond in delivering specialized care, particularly in critical areas like wound vac therapy. This award recognizes those who demonstrate unwavering dedication to their patients, traveling long distances—from Anthem to Florence—and stepping in at a moment’s notice when needed. The recipient’s adaptability, clinical expertise, and compassion directly contribute to lifesaving care and better patient outcomes, setting the standard for nursing excellence.
Meet Shonte Washington
Shonte Washington embodies everything this award represents. With an impressive 30-year nursing career, she has brought knowledge, experience, and deep compassion to every patient she serves. Her expertise in wound vac therapy has made a lasting impact on those needing complex, specialized care at home.
Originally from Chicago, Shonte has gained a wealth of experience across different regions, even spending part of her life in Hawaii before making Arizona her home. Beyond her professional achievements, she is an avid reader and photographer, finding joy in capturing moments through the lens and exploring different perspectives through literature.
Shonte’s willingness to go the extra mile—both figuratively and literally—has made her an indispensable part of our team. Whether responding to urgent calls, adapting to evolving patient needs, or ensuring the highest standard of care, she consistently demonstrates excellence and dedication.
A Heartfelt Thank You
