Security officer Robert Johnson, a 58-year-old former Marine, cheers on nurses after they wrap up a grueling 12-hour, overnight shift helping patients in the fight for their lives

"Sometimes we have up to, like, 10 to sometimes 18 nurses walk out and we just kind of wait for each other," said Kelly Wilson, a registered nurse who works in the neonatal intensive care unit at Kaiser Permanente Downey."It's like a cheer squad."But the"cheer squad" wouldn't exist without its unofficial leader, the person who greets them outside every day after their shift: Security officer Robert Johnson.

"I think it was a month into it, it was being consistent, and we were having conversations about it in our unit," Wilson said."The co-workers were like, 'Oh, man! I can't wait to get off work and see that guy!' One of the nurses described him. She was like, 'He's my cup of coffee on my ride home for work.'"Now, Johnson describes his interactions with the nurses as a"party.

How come all of CNN's positive stories are ONLY about black people? Is CNN racist against white people, asian people, and hispanic people? I protest CNN. CNN is racist.

I'm so painful

Not all heroes wear capes👏👏👏

jaketapper Security Guards at hospitals? America, get your shit together.

jaketapper That’s great man w a great spirit. God bless him and all the front line health workers!!

jaketapper All Frontline workers deserve a Mr. Johnson in their lives.

Time for true Republicans to get on the right side of history. (Retweet if you agree)

tedlieu Bless this gentleman! ❤

tedlieu Thank you for featuring such a positive and bright light.

tedlieu 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️

tedlieu Good CNN and I've been watching so I'll be cancelling the redundancy from you guys. So keep it up that way. Thanks CNN Let's keep America safe with news of truth. Americans deserves better.

Robert Johnson thanks for the inspiration!

Watching this made me cry. What a kind and loving person this man is!

2:05 “No problems in life, just challenges that you will overcome.” I’m gonna guess a mother and father present, finished HS, served in US Marine Corps, in other words has accepted positive personal responsibility. No better message for those who have nothing but excuses.

God bless this man! There are great things in your future, sir ♡♡

We need more great people like this !!😀✅👏👏👏👏👍🏽

Booyah

It's unfair to compare indian media with vultures. The vultures will at least wait till you're dead.

That’s beautiful .. Robert Johnson well done, “ no problems in life only challenges to overcome”.

why is there an ad with this article

Look at the joy, amazing!

You develop a pretty simple but meaningful relationship w the Guy Always at the Door You Use. And you miss them when they aren't there.

What a gift. That man is a hero. Supporting other heroes. He isn’t getting swallowed by the hate and chaos. What a great smile. Warmed my heart. God bless. Btw - what ever happened to people cheering and supporting nurses/doctors and front line workers?

How wonderful is this man🥰 just we need more of “LOVE” Not hate

He's a Marine, not a former Marine.

Awesome awesome man ❤️👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼. Thank you for ya service and the blessings you continue to spread. And that’s a heck of a lot better than spreading Covid. People practicing healthy clean safe procedures are going to make sure corona doesn’t come to our home and yours ❤️
