Alison Stosich has been a valued member of the 11 Long/12 Long nursing staff for over 5 years. Ali is known to be a team player who brightens the unit with her sense of humor. More than once patients have singled Ali out for her ability to meet their medical needs with a personal touch. Recently, Ali was one of the primary nurses for a very complex patient on our units. Ali used her excellent communication skills to advocate for the patient’s needs and initiate the change that was needed to move his care forward. Ali's care and navigation of the situation were recognized by the patient and his wife as stellar. They called Ali an “angel” and described her care as "phenomenal".
