anne wood, RN, MSN

I was blown away by Anne in her professionalism, attention to detail, positive attitude, flexibility, and desire to really make a difference! Anne floated to our floor and took on a pretty challenging situation with an Arabic speaking family. The patient was slowly weaning of methadone and intermittently experiencing withdrawal symptoms. The plan for the day involved: advancing NG feeds from a pump to gravity bolus feeds for discharge. When I went to speak with Anne about the plan, I kind of assumed I would find an overwhelmed float nurse pulling her hair out. Instead, Anne had already established a systematic plan for advancing feeds and working with the parents. She continued to update me throughout the day and even spent time patiently teaching a nursing student. She was fantastic! Although the withdrawal symptoms increased that day and set back some of the NG teaching /advancement for discharge, I still believe that she exhibited the core vision and mission of what Seton is founded on and she did it with grace and joy!
