Pin owner Sue Ann McDevitt, RN: "This pin pays homage to the symbols of Israel. My specialty is travel medicine, preparing people before they journey off to distant shores, provide vaccines, knowledge of self-care and behavioral modifications to stay healthy and safe." McDevitt is a staff nurse at NYU Langone Health.
