Recognizing the impact nurses make.
At APS Health & Infusion, we’re proud of the compassionate, skilled, and dedicated nurses who care for our patients every day. If one of our nurses has made a meaningful impact on your health journey, we invite you to share your experience.
Your story can help us spotlight the incredible care our nurses provide—and remind them that the work they do truly matters.
Why recognize a nurse?
-
✽
Show appreciation for outstanding care.
Nurses are often the steady hands and compassionate hearts guiding patients through complex health journeys. Taking a moment to recognize a nurse who went above and beyond—whether through clinical excellence or emotional support—is a powerful way to express gratitude and let them know their dedication didn’t go unnoticed.
-
✽
Uplift the stories of connection, healing, and compassion.
Behind every successful treatment or infusion is a story—often one filled with trust, encouragement, and care. Sharing your personal experience helps shine a light on these moments of connection that define the APS standard of care and inspire our entire team.
-
✽
Celebrate the quiet impact nurses make behind the scenes.
Much of what nurses do happens quietly, without fanfare. From thoughtful follow-ups to seamless coordination of care, their contributions are the foundation of our patients’ well-being. By nominating a nurse, you help bring well-deserved recognition to the essential—but often unseen—ways they serve and support others.
How it works:
-
✽
Share Your Experience
Use the nomination form linked below to tell us about your experience. Whether it’s a brief note of appreciation or a more detailed story, every submission helps us better understand the difference our nurses are making. There’s no “right” way to write your nomination—just speak from the heart.
-
✽
Monthly Review & Selection
At the end of each month, our leadership team thoughtfully reviews all submissions. From there, we select one nurse to be honored as our “Nurse of the Month.” Selections are based not on volume of nominations, but on the depth and impact of the care described by patients and families.
-
✽
Respectful Recognition
If a nurse is chosen to be featured, we will always reach out to them first for consent before sharing any part of your story publicly—whether on social media or within our internal team. We recognize that some nurses prefer to remain out of the spotlight, and we honor that choice fully.

Christina Norris, RN
Please join us in celebrating Christina Norris, RN, our August Nurse of the Month!
Chrissy knew from the age of three that she wanted to become a nurse. She made that dream a reality at 23 and has spent the last 22 years building a career defined by versatility, compassion, and heart.
She began in Telemetry and Med/Surg before working as a registry nurse, gaining hands-on experience in hospitals, surgery centers, and nursing homes. That wide-ranging background eventually led her to a pediatric dental surgery center, where she spent eight years caring for children.
Before transitioning to home infusion, Chrissy worked in an outpatient oncology infusion center—and it was there that she discovered a strong passion for infusion therapy. She now feels right at home in the field, where she deeply values the relationships she’s able to build with her patients.
Outside of work, Chrissy has been married for 18 years and is a proud mom to a 22-year-old son and a 16-year-old daughter. Her daughter lives with a rare autoimmune disease called Polymyositis, and Christina says her nursing background has helped her navigate that journey with strength, knowledge, and grace.
In her free time, she enjoys reading, hiking, camping, crafting, watching her favorite shows, and playing video games—but most of all, she treasures time spent with her close family and friends.
Thank you, Chrissy, for the warmth, dedication, and skilled care you bring to every patient interaction. We’re proud to have you as part of the APS team!
Angie Jones, RN, FNP
Please join us in celebrating Angie Jones, RN, FNP, our July Nurse of the Month!
With over 30 years of nursing experience and 10 years as a Family Nurse Practitioner, Angie brings both clinical expertise and heartfelt dedication to every patient she serves. She spent 16 years in oncology—where her passion for walking alongside patients during their most vulnerable moments truly took root—and has now been in infusion nursing for the past 4.5 years. Since joining APS, she’s continued to provide exceptional care, while also filling in as an NP across four rural health clinics.
What she loves most about infusion nursing is the deep connection it allows her to build with patients and their families.
Her patients feel that connection, too. One shared:
“Angie never misses a dose. She has the best personality and the most loving approach to handling a very difficult patient. We’ve enjoyed her in our lives for three years now.”
Another wrote:
“She’s the best. She makes infusions not seem so bad—she’s always there and dependable.”
Others added:
“I’ve made a new friend in Angie. She’s sweet, considerate, and knows exactly what she’s doing.”
“Angie is very professional and an awesome person. We all just love Mrs. Angie Jones.”
Outside of work, Angie is a proud wife of 38 years, mom to six, and grandmother to 22—including one she helped raise who recently earned her BSN! When she’s not caring for patients or supporting her growing family, you’ll find her crafting, creating mixed media art, or tending to her three dogs, seven baby chicks, and a pig.
Thank you, Angie, for the joy, skill, and heart you bring to APS and the lives you touch every day!

Please join us in celebrating Jennifer Astle, RN, our June Nurse of the Month!
With over 15 years of nursing experience, Jennifer has spent the last three years making a meaningful impact at APS. She’s known for her compassion, professionalism, and patient-first approach—and says what she loves most about APS is the supportive team and the cohesive care they’re able to provide.
“APS gives me the opportunity to manage my schedule and build long-term relationships with my patients. That’s something I truly value.”
Her patients feel that dedication deeply. One shared:
“Nurse Jen always goes the extra mile and ensures I have all that I need and more. She is incredibly compassionate, attentive, and thorough—she’s given me hope again. She’s more than a nurse—she’s a godsend.”
Another wrote:
“Jenn easily connects with people and is super friendly. She clearly explains the process and readily answers questions.”
Outside of work, Jennifer is a proud mom of four: a 6-year-old, a 5-year-old, and a set of 2-year-old twins. Life is always on the go, but she wouldn’t have it any other way!
Thank you, Jennifer, for the warmth, skill, and heart you bring to APS and every patient you serve!
Trinity Rector, RN
Please join us in celebrating Trinity Rector, RN, our May Nurse of the Month!
With 13 years of nursing experience—most in medical and neuro ICU—Trinity joined APS in 2022 and found a new rhythm in home infusion care. Based in Southern California, she works with a small group of families and values the meaningful connections she’s able to build.
“Home infusion has given me the opportunity to truly get to know my patients and watch them grow and thrive.”
Her patients feel that care deeply. One parent shared:
“My daughter used to be scared of needles. Now she lets her nurse administer them like it’s nothing... Trinity is patient and truly cares about her feelings.”
Outside of work, Trinity enjoys life as a mom, wife, cat-spoiler, and fantasy fiction writer—and stays busy baking and gardening (even if she calls herself “enthusiastic, not expert”).
Thank you, Trinity, for the kindness and excellence you bring to APS!
