Vantage Hospice salutes Marian Aguilar!

 I graduated from College of the Mainland in 2008 with my LVN certificate and worked mostly in long term care, that’s when my dad found a listing online for hospice CC nursing. I discovered my career as a hospice nurse initially in 2010, I was a CC nurse for almost 3 years and learned so much about this special field of nursing. I was naturally drawn to teaching, supporting and caring for terminal patients and compassionately helping those close to the patient.
I returned to school and obtained my ADN in 2012. Shortly after my father died from cancer, 2 years later my best friend died from cancer, both of the ones I loved passed away peacefully at home... surrounded by loved ones with hospice in place.
After losses so near to my heart, I attempted to “take a break” from hospice care. I was not even gone a year. When I returned to the field that is when I initially came to Vantage.
During my time away I came to the realization that part of me, part of who I have grown into as part of my being, is a Hospice nurse. I have found my place in the nursing industry where I am blessed to help our team, patients, and their loved ones in a very special way, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.
In my time off from work spend time with my family and friends. I love cooking, movies, occasional casino trips, riding on the river and now crafting.

I received my Associates Degree in Nursing in December of 2013 from Wharton County Junior College and my Bachelors Degree in Nursing in August of 2018 from University of Texas Arlington.
In my off time I enjoy visiting with family, watching movies, reading and cooking.

Vantage Hospice salutes Sarah Moreno!

At 3 months old, our first child stopped breathing. As I watched a huge team of healthcare staff work feverishly to save his life, I knew I wanted to join the medical field. A year later, we brought home a newborn and he also stopped breathing, thankfully an amazing team stepped in quickly to save his life. I knew my calling from God and my passion to serve others was clear. I took a double stroller with 2 kids on apnea monitors to register for night classes (when my husband would be home with the babies) to become an EMT. I worked several years on a 911 ambulance and knew I wanted to expand my medical career. My dream of becoming a holistic nurse became true when I was accepted to the University of St. Thomas. I've been an RN for over 5 years and have worked in Oncology, Hospice Management and now enjoy the flexible schedule of float nurse at Vantage Hospice. I am amazed daily at Vantage's teamwork, high employee morale and kind spirit as we seek to serve our beloved patients and their families through mind, body and spirit. At Vantage, we understand the beginning of life is just as important as the end of life. We take great care to preserve dignity and ensure our patients and families know they are loved and supported.

I worked at MD Anderson Cancer Center for 30 years. It was after my mother elected Hospice that I was drawn to provided this unique and specialized nursing care.
My joy comes from serving our patients and families, I always say a prayer before going in to be with them..."I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
I have a daughter and three awesome grandchildren that I adore...I truly enjoy spending time with my husband and family! Y'all know my hobbies are singing and dancing ☺️

Vantage Hospice salutes Carrie Retzlaff!

Before becoming a nurse and working with hospice patients, I worked with children in different capacities. I taught pre-k, assisted elementary aged special needs children, and taught Sunday School. My desire to be a nurse has always been strong, so at 40 years old, I decided to go to nursing school! At the time, my kiddos were busy 9 and 13 year olds, and my husband was a very busy restaurateur! They all stood by me through it all, including my very supportive mother (she’s an angel!) Thank God for them! It was honestly the hardest time of my life and I can’t thank them enough for their sacrifices.
I know everyone wonders... Why hospice?!! I have wanted to care for hospice patients and their families since I was 19. My brother Pat was ill and there was nothing the hospital could do for him. He went home and was placed on hospice. We were devastated. We couldn’t wrap our minds around the fact that he wasn’t going to get well. The entire hospice team (Nurse, aid, chaplain, LMSW) brought comfort not only to my brother, but the entire family, in an unbelievably awful situation. They truly felt like they were sent from above. I knew that this was what the Lord wanted me to do for others.
The end of life doesn’t have to be painful and sad. It can be just as joyous as when we enter life. Once palliated medically, the patient also needs peace. I try to help them have dignity, and a voice. So many feel ignored and set aside. They need to talk about what they contributed in their lives.. that they, too, were once vibrant members of the community and they have stories they want to tell, so that the stories don’t die along with them.
My patients are often more of a blessing to me than I am to them, and I am so thankful that I am able to be such an intimate part of their lives.

I love my job! 💙💚
