I wish there was one singular story to convey, but there isn't. Cassie was simply the most informative, attentive, compassionate, and forthcoming nurse when it came to the care of my mother, who was recovering from open-heart surgery.
Cassie was my mom's first nurse during post-op recovery. Her utter devotion to my mother's well-being, not to mention her attention to me and my family's need for information, made the first few days after surgery far less strenuous and terrifying. Cassie is an angel in scrubs. We are all so thankful for her and her skills.
