Iris was able to assess my needs in a way that I truly felt heard and understood and advocated with skill on behalf of my wishes and concerns.
In life, there are people who can be the thermostat in the room, rather than the thermometer - and Iris is one of those people. The unique ability to make a change to the temperature and needs of the room, not just notice them! She has grace, skill, and such compassion as a nurse! I was struggling after having my first c-section, and Iris was able to assess my needs in a way that I truly felt heard and understood and advocated with skill on behalf of my wishes and concerns. I’m not sure how I would have made it through that morning (and the following days) without her. Anyone can physically care for someone, but it takes a truly special person to care about someone. My family and I had a quality healthcare experience because of Iris, and were truly grateful. She deserves a million daisies for making such a difference to our little family, and I’m sure everyone who is blessed to be cared for by her.
