"To me, the future that lies ahead seems optimistic now that we have vaccines gradually being offered to the public. I am appreciative of the people who have worked vigorously for the last few months to develop these research-driven solutions to the pandemic. I ended the horrifying year of 2020 with a bang by getting the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine offered at my workplace, Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital of Henderson. I am thankful and blessed to play a role in this solution. It has been a privilege to be a part of serving and caring for people in dire need in the midst of this pandemic. This is what hope looks like. I got the shot! Don’t hesitate, vaccinate." - Christine Espenilla, BSN, RN, CRRN
