VBMC-Brownsville Helping Hero of the Quarter
 

Nicolas Morales, E.R.
At 1240 a.m. a volunteer called for someone from the E.R. to go pick up a man that was bleeding.  It was thought that the patient had cut himself.  The PBX operator was asked to get a volunteer to get a wheelchair to bring the patient to E.R.  Instead, the PBX operator called Nick and asked him to go and without hesitation he went to see the patient.   It turned out to be that this patient had just been discharged from 2 Tower and was bleeding a lot from his arm where the I.V. was at.  Nick was able to stop the bleeding by applying pressure and the man was happy because he thought Nick was going to put him back in the hospital when all he wanted to do was go home.  Thanks to Nick none of that happened and the man went home.
