Descrição:

Julia M. Peña: 2016 Reasons to Believe Honoree: Julia Peña thought she drew the short straw during nursing school. When students were signing up for rotations at the hospital, she got stuck with the burn center. She was so scared and unhappy that she went home and cried.
But one day into the work, she realized how much she liked the people and the work. Now 28 years later, she is still there.
Peña is a staff nurse in the outpatient burn/wound clinic at the University of Kansas Medical Center. The hardest part about her job is that while taking care of her patients she often has to inflict pain on them. The best part is helping to heal them. She loves seeing them smile.
