Debbie was just the most amazing nurse after my procedure. I had a procedure that made me a bit anxious, and her calming presence, warmth, and professionalism were exactly what I needed to recover in the PACU. 
     
She was extremely attentive; I never even had to reach for my call light. I mentioned I was in a bit of discomfort, and she promptly paged the doctor, and I was given Tylenol almost instantly. She gave clear and concise instructions to both me and my fiancé before discharge. 
     
I believe we need more nurses like Debbie in this world. I left the hospital feeling like I received the best care in the world.

Note: This is Debbie's 2nd DAISY Award!

Thank you, Debra, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
