All of the nurses at Memorial have been outstanding, especially Brittany. She has made our stay at Memorial so much more tolerable. She has been patient with us and answered all of our, at times ridiculous, questions without judgment. She explains everything perfectly and so that we understand.
Brittany has also been great with my father. She is patient with him, compassionate, caring, and works hard to make sure he is comfortable. She is a kind and diligent worker and always makes time to assure us that everything is fine. Her ability to make us feel at ease with her demeanor, as well as sometimes just her presence, is outstanding. We would like to nominate her not only because she deserves it, but also because we can never find a way to thank her enough or show our full appreciation in a way that she deserves.
Having someone check up on your family member or reach out to you even when they are not his attending nurse is so reassuring. Brittany even went as far as to watch my infant daughter in the waiting area so I could be with my mother during morning rounds. These are just some of the reasons I believe Brittany deserves special recognition. We would like Brittany to know how much of a difference she has made in our lives and that we could not be more appreciative.
