Anita recognized that I needed help, worked hard to find a solution, and actually listened and responded to my needs!
I am 33 yrs old and had to be admitted for my second brain stent in two years. It’s been a difficult road for me, and, when I came out of surgery, I was experiencing even worse headaches than normal. Anita spent time with me late at night trying to figure out how to give me some peace to rest. She worked with me, the other nurses, and the doctors to find me medication. I was in pain, grouchy and tired, but Anita recognized that I needed help, worked hard to find a solution, and actually listened and responded to my needs! I would have been in a lot worse shape mentally and physically without her care and concern. She went above and beyond to make my recovery as bearable as possible! After such a difficult journey, her care, concern, and love were exactly the medicine I needed! Thank you!
