I was admitted to the hospital after I was two days away from discharge from my rehab facility. My boyfriend was sick, and my best friend was helping him and us in many ways. To say I was stressed is an understatement.

I met Ashley, the RN, and she is the best nurse on the floor. She is sensitive to the needs of others, follows through quickly on what I needed, and she made me feel so comfortable. 

Ashley was an advocate for me, getting me additional help from the manager, and making sure she was my nurse so that I could be confident and comfortable with my care. Ashley has great attention to detail, and she takes the time to explain things so that I can know how to move forward in my care. She took the time to explain my oxygen saturation to me in a way that I could know how to make a difference so that I could get to where I needed to go and focus on my sick loved one.

When she walks into a room, you can see she cares, she takes the time to teach other nurses to care like her, and I am thankful for her. Please recognize her impact on the lives of the patients she works with.
