Ed has made a significant difference in my life.
Memorial has a top-notch nurse named Ed! He is the best nurse I have ever experienced. Ed took exceptional care of me while I was recovering from emergency surgery. He is a very compassionate, caring, and knowledgeable nurse. He helped me understand everything surrounding my diagnosis while in the hospital and explained to me what to expect after I got home. Ed even brought me homemade coffee on his day off which goes way beyond my expectations of care in a hospital. His dedication and work ethic are rare to find. Ed really enjoys being a nurse because he always had an upbeat and positive attitude. I never had to wait long for him to help me when I called for assistance. Ed has made a significant difference in my life. I cannot thank him enough for what he has done for me. Ed is a true asset to the nursing profession and to Memorial Hospital. I nominated Ed for the DAISY Award because of the extraordinary care and compassion I received while in the hospital.
