Amanda is always going above and beyond in everything she does. In one instance, a patient of hers requested to stay on her services and pay private nursing to continue to have Amanda come. He was recently diagnosed with cancer and has been very ill. Amanda drove to Fort Dodge hospital to visit this patient on her own time and will. She has visited him several times on her days off in Lake City to check in on him. This patient has continued to decline. His community had a benefit for him, and she went to his house and helped him get ready and down the stairs so that he was able to enjoy the people going by his house for his benefit. She is a perfect example of what a nurse should be, she is compassionate, caring, and kind. She puts 100% into everything she does and makes sure that nothing is left undone.
