Debbie Ingles, RN

Debbie came in to work just to help me as the CN through an incredibly complex/emotional situation. Debbie is the biggest advocate for our staff & their safety & recognizes that psychological safety is just as important. I’ve worked at PCH for 12 years & I can’t begin to express how important it is to have a member of leadership you know you can depend on. Debbie is compassionate and kind but also determined to find solutions to problems. Words can’t express how thankful I am for her support when I was feeling extremely defeated and unsure who else I could talk to for help. I knew something needed to be done to help protect our staff, but I didn’t know where else to turn, and I felt defeated. Debbie came in & immediately took the weight of the problem off my shoulders. She gathered extra department leadership & together came up with a safety plan to prevent any more harm to staff. I can’t begin to explain how strong her voice needed to be & how flawlessly she approached & then executed a difficult conversation. Thank you so much for being an incredible nurse to look up to. Our unit is so lucky to have called you ours!
