KYMA YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - From being delivered at Yuma Regional Medical Center to working and now being the top Intensive Care Unit nurse, Javier Rivera is named Arizona's Nurse Association (ANA) Yuma Chapter Nurse of the Year. The former college football player said one college course was all it took to send him down the nursing path. With more than a decade of service to Yuma, Rivera said he's humbled for the recognition. 'I was shocked, I originally didn't think that I was up for the award because I just got the mentorship, the excellence inuring mentorship award,' said Rivera.
