October 2025 Honoree
Charles L Kennedy, MSN, BSN, RN
My nurse was a dedicated, kind, helpful, cheerful, and “Johnny-on-the-spot” nurse! Charles was always willing to please and help, and to do so with a smile. Every morning, I looked forward to seeing him.
There wasn’t a clock in my room, and this nurse knew I did not have a watch. They searched, found a clock, and mounted it in my room!
I also had no air conditioning in my room and was not able to sleep. This nurse found portable fans and mounted them on the bed for my comfort. I cannot begin to tell you how thankful I was to Charles.
Additionally, I have always been very modest with male nurses about asking for feminine products. With him, I felt comfortable enough to ask.
Charles is truly an extraordinary nurse! While staying on top of his nursing duties, he still found time to make me feel special!
