The best skill she demonstrated was that she was very personal with each one of us and treated us like family
My son is my whole life and when he was accidentally shot, I was devastated. Claudia explained everything to me so I didn’t have to keep asking what everything meant. She always came into the room with a smile and had a great attitude – always making me laugh and smile. She not only took super good care of my son, but she also took the time to take care of the rest of our family. The best skill she demonstrated was that she was very personal with each one of us and treated us like family, not as a patient. She is the most dedicated nurse I have ever met, and if we could, we would make her a part of our family. She is a God-sent angel, and we’re blessed to have her as my son’s nurse!
