Bernice struck a wonderful balance between professionalism and personal, making us feel cared for and reassured.
When I came in to be induced, I was very nervous. Bernice immediately made me feel very comfortable and at ease. When she found out that I could not have an epidural, she took the extra time to teach me some great breathing techniques. Even though her shift ended and she was not there when I delivered, her advice and techniques helped me tremendously. Then, she came and visited us when she was back on shift to see how the delivery went, which meant a lot to us. She made my experience very good.
***
Bernice from Labor and Delivery was beyond what my wife and I could have asked for in regards to helping us through labor. This was our first child, and thus our first delivery, and looking back, my wife and I could not imagine the experience without Bernice there. She is the type of nurse who displays an obvious passion and love for her occupation, which is a rarity in today's world. Bernice struck a wonderful balance between professionalism and personal, making us feel cared for and reassured. Her balance between these two takes such talent that most individuals fail to ever achieve in their working life. This ability is evidence of her talent as a Labor and Delivery nurse. My wife and I feel we gained a friend whom we both care for and who cared for us through the delivery. We truly care about her because we know she truly cared for us.
***
We have had six babies at this hospital. Bernice is by far the best and most memorable nurse we have had. She went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable during the difficult labor my wife had (almost 24 hrs.). She goes the extra mile and doesn’t just do the job to “check the box”.
***
Since the beginning, she was very welcoming and caring. Everyone who walked into the room to see us, she introduced herself, asked them questions, making them feel comfortable and welcomed. She made sure everyone was there, and I never needed anything while she was out of the room.
Throughout my labor, she made me feel well taken care of, and I felt like I didn’t have to worry about anything. We loved how happy she was, as well as how very detailed she was when she explained things. She definitely made us want to come back to this hospital for another birth.
