Albert Kodum, RN

I had total knee replacement surgery yesterday afternoon. After operating room recovery, I got into my hospital room and into bed for rest and continued recovery. All staff as usual here at Valley are fantastic and work as a team, which is important to me. Albert was one of the overnight nurses and I want to commend him for outstanding, compassionate care.

What did he do? Well, full set of IV meds, pills, managing the sequential air devices, bed angle, bed covers, Vital signs esp. BP check, checking blood drain, and empty the reservoir, providing fresh ice water and responded for many bathroom breaks through the night with a walker and walking assistance 100% there and back, always prompt and friendly. Albert was very thorough with all of the nurse steps and computer data. I really appreciate his attentive care. Congrats to Valley on a great team member.
