Mr. VINDMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise to congratulate Ms. Beverly Wharton, my Constituent of the Week, for her more than 43 years of service as a registered nurse at the UVA Health Culpeper Medical Center. Beverly Wharton is a critical care nurse, and she has been doing that job since 1992. She has served on the front lines caring for patients and families during their most vulnerable moments. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she demonstrated extraordinary courage and compassion and helped save countless lives. Her commitment to excellence, her steady leadership, and her compassion for others have made a lasting impact on her colleagues, patients, and the entire Culpeper community. Beverly embodies the very best of the nursing profession. I thank her for her remarkable service and congratulate her on this milestone. ____________________
