Dana heard us talking about going to get him some suckers and she went and found some and surprised my dad with them.
Dana took care of a patient, L, in the ED. I received a letter from his family wanting to thank her for her care, but they did not have a way to do the nomination, so I am entering it for his family based on the letter I received. "She was wonderful to him and us. She went above and beyond to make him comfortable and to keep us informed of all stages of his care."
"The doctor was not so kind to us, but Dana made up for it with all her kind words and helpful gestures. My dad passed away a few days later after that last visit to the ER. My family just really appreciated the way Dana kept coming in to make sure we are all good and that my dad was not in any pain and that he did not need anything."
"One thing that really stole our hearts was the last few weeks of his life he started sucking on suckers. We did not bring any to the ER with us, but Dana heard us talking about going to get him some suckers and she went and found some and surprised my dad with them. That just shows how compassionate she is for her patients and for her work in the ER. My father did not pass in the hospital, he was able to go home and pass, but Dana made his last visit to the ER very comfortable. My family and I are very grateful for her kind, compassionate care that she gave to him and us."
