Debbie Miller is a DAISY nurse. A patient’s family wrote: "I want you to be aware of the most wonderful and compassionate care my mother received from one of your nurses on 4 West during the final 4 days of her life. My mom volunteered at Saint Clare’s for 33 years helping patients, their families, and visitors as if they were her own family members. It was so fitting therefore, that she was blessed to have Debbie on duty for those final days. Debbie comforted not only my mom, but comforted my 92 year old dad, and myself, by going beyond her daily duties. She kept close watch on my mom attending to her bed sheets, washing and cleaning her many times during the day, combing her hair, and keeping her comfortable and warm. She called for a complimentary lunch cart for my dad and me so we didn't have to leave my mom’s side. When it was imminent my mom was passing, Debbie hugged us and stayed with us helping through the initial grieving process, and waited with us until the funeral director came to mom’s room. Debbie should be exalted for her professionalism and for being a true model of our core values. My dad also wishes to thank her, and everyone at Saint Clare’s for the care his wife received from the hometown hospital that they depended on since 1945. As we both look back with sadness, we count our blessings that someone like Debbie was here for us when we needed them the most!"
