This story is about the unsung healthcare heroes who work inside Kansas City's area hospitals and networks that often go unnoticed. These people are the true lifeblood of the medical profession--those who work alongside physicians. They are the caregivers, the order and charge nurses, the volunteers, nutritional staff, occupational therapists, and the people who go the extra mile to make the sick feel better. Whether it is offering a tender hand to hold, a compassionate smile, hearing a friendly word or just giving another person a reason to make their heart skip a beat.

It is these Heroes in Healthcare being honored in this February edition of Ingram's. And it should be a feature during the month when we acknowledge those you care for and whose heart has touched yours in some kind way. As these profiles unfold, you'll discover a common thread amongst each person--their love of people and their caring and loving actions towards others. For them this is a personal acknowledgement of a job well done.
