“Atina is one of the very best nurses I have dealt with." said the patient. "I appreciate her so much. She is so informative when I ask her questions. She calms my nerves when answering. She is so well-educated and smart. I am thrilled to have her 2 nights in a row. I have not forgotten her kindness. She is so kind and thoughtful in helping me get through this mentally and physically. This is a challenge for me, and she helps me in all different ways. She is so patient with me. She also stops what she is doing to help me. Such a great attitude! Thank you for employing Atina to the Kaiser team. She is such a positive asset to your team. so very special and wonderful to me." Atina joined our team just less than a year ago. She had found her second home, made a lot of friends.

On another occasion, Her patient nominated her for being "a very personable nurse, caring for her patient. She is respectful when I need help. I love having her as my nurse during my stay. She's efficient yet kind and caring." On the same thank you note, the patient/family also requested to have Atina be her nurse the following night. "I wish I could just adopt her, she is such a sweetheart." Atina's extraordinary care touches every patient of hers.

Another patient of hers mentioned, "Atina was my night nurse. She is pretty young, energetic, vibrant, beautiful, devoted to nursing, caring and sweet. She helped me every hour to get to the washroom until I fell asleep last night. I wish her all the best for her future advancement in nursing. May God fulfill her wishes and fly high to be the best nurse."

Way to go, Atina! Your compassionate care to every patient, every moment, and every day.
