Jeanette takes wonderful care of all her patients, but she is even more passionate when it comes to the loss of a baby regardless of gestation. She takes the extra time to make the best mementos possible for parents to take home. She speaks to patients in a respectful way. It can be difficult to know what to say to a patient in a time of loss, especially the loss of a baby. She is committed to making sure the entire staff is knowledgeable in terms of care of the patient, mementos that can be made, and how to be sensitive to the patient's needs. Jeanette deserves recognition for her commitment to caring for our patients in their greatest time of need and vulnerability.
