February 2021 Honoree
desiree little, MSN, NP-BC
Nurse Desiree Little is the most welcoming, caring, informative, watchful, nourishing, inventive nurse ever to co-pilot the landing of a new and vital branch of medicine at Abrazo Arizona Heart Hospital called the CardioRenal Center. My mom, K, had been hospitalized three times within three months at your hospital in 2017.
Nurse Little has been with us every step of the way. K, at 96 years young, has very challenging veins as they like to hide. Nurse Desiree has the remarkable skill of inserting her IVs with one attempt, eliminating untold discomfort and bruising.
Our family has become friends with Nurse Desiree. We are comfortable sharing information with her, as she focuses and concentrates as we speak. She remembers our stories, struggles, and activities. Even Mom's birthday!
My mom added that she feels 'Nurse Desiree is thoroughly educated, both formally and through experience. This includes working in sync, alongside the doctor. She is keenly observant and truly understands my challenges and how to address them.'
