Mateo C. Ortiz

Caregiver and nurse, Minneapolis Community Hospital

  • 🇺🇸 Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States
  • Minneapolis Community Hospital
  • 1990 to 2021
  • English, Spanish
I've been a nurse for 31 years, most of them in orthopedics at Minneapolis Community Hospital in Minneapolis. Night shifts taught me patience, and patients taught me everything else. I'm usually the first one in and the last to leave. Small things matter when someone is frightened.

More about Mateo

I still get cards from families years later. They're pinned to my fridge.

Areas of care

What gifts mean to Mateo: A gift would go toward blankets and small comforts for patients without family.
