Recognizing the patient's request for a haircut and understanding its emotional significance, Cameron utilized the limited supplies available to give this gentleman a much-needed haircut.
Recently, Cameron, a dedicated night shift nurse, went above and beyond to bring a much-needed sense of normalcy and joy to a patient who had been in the hospital for several weeks. Recognizing the patient's request for a haircut and understanding its emotional significance, Cameron utilized the limited supplies available to give this gentleman a much-needed haircut. Moreover, despite being a night shift nurse, Cameron took the extra step to provide the patient in an even-numbered room, typically cared for by day shift staff, with a deep clean bath, including a deep shampoo scrub. This thoughtful and compassionate gesture not only improved the patient's appearance but also significantly lifted his spirits.

Cameron’s actions exemplify our company’s mission statement, “Service is Our Passion,” by delivering true 5-star care to this gentleman. Cameron’s commitment to enhancing patient well-being and maintaining dignity through such personal care highlights his exceptional dedication and makes him a truly deserving candidate for this award.
