Daniela took care of the dog for the day and made sure she was well fed and loved.
A patient’s dog was unfortunately let loose in the parking lot while the patient was on 2400. Daniela saw the dog when leaving in the morning after a night shift. She took the dog to the vet for a checkup and contacted the charge nurse to find a way to reunite the dog with the patient. The charge connected Daniela with the patient’s sister, who picked up the dog later that day. Daniela took care of the dog for the day and made sure she was well fed and loved. The patient was relieved that their dog was kept safe. This event was all thanks to the extraordinary care of an amazing nurse, Daniela.
