I started cardiac rehab following a triple bypass surgery. After one week of rehab, COVID-19 closed the unit. While the unit was closed, Carol still called me each week to check on me. Those calls included words of encouragement and a caring attitude. When I returned to rehab a few months later, Carol was straight-forward in her care and instructions. She was caring, encouraging, empathetic, and knowledgeable. Her encouragement throughout my rehab helped me to progress in my exercise and well-being. She always kept me in the loop on my progress and frequently congratulated me on my efforts. Carol is a treasure and an amazing nurse. My ever grateful thanks goes out to Carol for taking wonderful care of me.

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