I would like to personally thank Evette for her dedication and care that she showed me during my hospital stay in October. I coded 3 times and Evette stayed with me and comforted me; she took the time to take a phone call from my daughter who could better explain my medical history. Evette checked on me several times throughout the day even though she was attending to other patients. She made sure to have someone constantly checking on me. This made me feel very safe at a time I was very distraught, upset, and confused. Evette also stayed late to introduce the night shift nurse to me and took extra care to explain to her my conditions and what to watch for. I am very grateful and appreciative for all her caring attention. Not at any time did she make me feel I wasn't safe during my ordeal. I want to personally say a huge thank you for her care that she gave me on that day and the days following. Words cannot express my appreciation.
