  Mr. PORTER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Pamela Clancy who is 
receiving the March of Dimes Nurse of the Year Award.
  Pamela has over 20 years experience in the nursing profession and 
presently serves as director of all Spring Valley Medical/Surgery 
Nursing Units. In addition to her professional competence, Pamela is a 
very caring individual and goes above and beyond to help patients feel 
at home. She is most known around the hospital for helping a couple put 
on a wedding when the groom became ill and had no way of rescheduling 
the ceremony. Pamela was also instrumental in the opening of the Joint 
and Spine Center and has received the service excellence award where 
she was the star champion employee of the month.
  In addition to her professional successes, Pamela is also very active 
in a number of philanthropic and charitable organizations. She 
volunteers at her church, Walk for a Cure, March of Dimes, the Spring 
Valley Hospital Health Fair, and the MDA yard sale as well as health 
screenings.
  Madam Speaker, I am proud to honor Pamela Clancy. Her professional 
expertise and caring nature have greatly enriched the lives of those in 
the Las Vegas community. I commend her efforts and commitment and 
congratulate her on receiving the March of Dimes Nurse of the Year 
Award and applaud her efforts.
