These nurses went above and beyond for my mother and my family to make it feel like they actually cared and that she wasn't just another patient.
Gina and Lindsey were everything, and more you would expect from a nurse. My mother was in ICU and suffered a severe anoxic brain injury leading to a very, very poor prognosis. Out of all the nurses my mom had, which was quite a few because she was in there for two weeks, Gina and Lindsey provided her with the most kind and compassionate care with great expertise in situations.  They were so informative on every question I asked, explaining everything in great detail. They were so sweet. They got supplies to make my mom's fingerprints, printed her heartbeat rhythm out on paper, found cute little bottles to put it in, and even painted her hand so we would have it for when she passed. These nurses went above and beyond for my mother and my family to make it feel like they actually cared and that she wasn't just another patient. They even stepped in the room to let us know they were leaving and what time they would be back scheduled to work. These ladies are amazing!!
