January 2025 Honoree
Jean Sanford, RN
This nurse went above and beyond what was expected; she came in during shift change, introduced herself, and assured me to call when I needed her; her demeanor made me feel everything was going to be okay; she consistently checked on me and made sure to explain all the medications. I decided to get up and remove everything without my nurse’s approval. Jean quickly came into the room, made sure I returned to bed safely and educated me on the importance of fall prevention; she was very patient with me and even gave me a coloring book to help me regain my right-side strength. She is one of the best nurses I have received care from, and many other patients would be lucky to have her as their nurse. Even after my discharge, she makes sure I am doing well. I’m so glad to have her as my nurse during my admission to MICU.
Thank you, Jean, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
