We all wore masks, but we could still see the twinkle in her eye and hear the kindness in her voice.
This is not a story of a life-saving or dramatic situation; it is just the story of a nurse doing her job in a super-nice way.

This morning, Aquisha made us feel comfortable and secure as we waited for my colonoscopy. She was so upbeat and pleasant and explained everything in a reassuring way. She made sure we were comfortable, and her easy laugh calmed us down at a tense time. After the procedure, she was again so kind and helpful. She went over the dismissal instructions slowly and in detail, answering all our questions. We all wore masks, but we could still see the twinkle in her eye and hear the kindness in her voice.

Some people just “do a job,” but Aquisha is clearly a person who is devoted to her job – doing her best and making the world a better place, just through small acts of kindness throughout the day. She is a super-nice nurse and would make any patient feel better.
