Tonight we took our three-year-old daughter into the emergency room; she had a very high fever and was throwing up and was very sick. The entire time Barb was so sweet and kind and worked so well with our daughter. In fact, she seemed to be the one that my daughter was most comfortable with out of everybody and she seemed to know how to work with children especially well. All around I felt like she was such a wonderful present to be around and she made us feel heard and comforted; we definitely appreciated everything that she brought to a difficult evening as we had. The world needs more nurses and more people like Barbie.

Thank you, Barbie, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
