  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Cathie Alff of Anita, Iowa, for being selected as a 2015 
Hospital Hero by the Iowa Hospital Association. Cathie was one of 10 
Iowans recognized with this honor.
  As a certified nurse's aide in the Cass County Health System, Cathie 
is known for her compassionate and caring treatment for each and every 
one of her patients. She understands that the relationships she builds 
with them is the most important aspect of her job. Her number one 
priority is ensuring their quality care and treatment throughout their 
entire stay.
  Mr. Speaker, I commend Cathie for receiving this prestigious 2015 
Hospital Hero award.

It is Iowans like Cathie that make me proud to represent our great 
state. I ask that my colleagues in the United States House of 
Representatives join me in congratulating Cathie for receiving this 
award and in wishing her nothing but continued success.
