Miami intensive care unit nurse Araceli Buendia Ilagan, 63, passed away to complications of the virus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ilagan was an integral part of the Jackson Memorial hospital who mentored and trained other nurses and worked for Miami-Dade\u2019s public hospital system since the 1980\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘Our Jackson Health System family is mourning the death of longtime Jackson nurse Araceli Buendia Ilagan, who recently died from complications of COVID-19,’ the hospital said in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘Araceli dedicated nearly 33 years of her life treating some of our most critically ill patients.’<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ilagan worked her last shift at Jackson Memorial\u2019s ICU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She was also the second Jackson Health nurse to test positive for the virus in March.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs we battle this global public health crisis, caregivers throughout the world are bravely serving on the front lines, often putting their patients\u2019 lives before theirs. These medical professionals – people like Araceli – are the true heroes, and we salute them all,\u201d the hospital said in the statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to records, Ilagan lived in Pembroke Pines and became licenced as a registered nurse in Florida in 1982 and then an advanced practice registered nurse in 1991.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her brother shared a post on Facebook praising her as a ‘true hero in the fight against COVID-19’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘My sister Araceli Buendia Ilagan, a nurse in Miami, Florida since 1981 was a victim of this Covid-19. She was nursing those patients with the said virus in their hospital and unfortunately contracted and became unwell,’ he shared Saturday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
