Our Hometown Hero of the week is Ariel Rangel, a CNA at UNC Rex Healthcare! 

Ariel was nominated by Nikki who said: Ariel has always had the gift for showing compassion and care for others. During COVID, Ariel had to reschedule her wedding and worked tirelessly on the COVID unit at Rex. Ariel volunteered extra shifts, and some weeks she worked almost 60 hours. So to celebrate CNA week, I nominate one of the hardest working CNAs I know. I am so proud to call this beautiful soul my daughter.

Thank you, Ariel, for your service! We’re sending you a gift card to Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q to thank you for all you do!
