Alissa made the transition into being a first-time mom an easy one knowing I had someone there if I needed her.
Alissa was our nurse when we had our little girl. It was a perfect match. During labor, you not only need someone to reassure you that you and your baby are okay but you also need a coach. She anticipated all of my frustrations, updated me on my baby and my progress before I even had a chance to ask. She and the doctor worked seamlessly together. When babe started to struggle and interventions were mentioned, Alissa knew I had it in me to go without and pushed me to have a successful delivery. She continued to check in on me for days and weeks after the delivery and it made the transition into being a first-time mom an easy one knowing I had someone there if I needed her. An extra thanks to her for her speedy response to my husband as well when he turned as white as a sheet and almost passed out during my epidural. The Samaritan Experience is a feeling of trust and confidence created by our team of caregivers for every patient every time...Alissa epitomizes this. Thank you, Alissa.
