Char Fohrd, RN

I am a first-time mother. The last week of my pregnancy I had some issues with my blood pressure, so I had to be monitored. Char was my attending nurse and monitored all my vitals. The midwife decided I needed to be induced so I came back in for the procedure. Char again was my attending nurse and went above and beyond to make me comfortable. Every question and concern I had was quickly relieved with her knowledge and compassion. She never once hesitated to make sure I was comfortable with the answers I received. I couldn’t have done it without her during my labor and delivery. She was so calm and encouraging through every contraction. She motivated me to continue even when I didn’t think I could go anymore. She stayed past her shift to help deliver my baby girl. I firmly believe everyone has a place in this world and her place is maternity. This maternity ward needs her kindness, compassion, and knowledge. I will forever be grateful for her care during my stay at this hospital. She made what I thought, at the time, the most painful thing I’ve gone through, into the best experience. She was meant to love and care for mothers and their babies. Before she left her shift, I could not thank her enough for being there for me.
