Let me just say is short. Jessica saved me from drowning on this night shift. I am a nurse and was drowning on a unit. I had complex patients. In particular one with an ostomy that would just not stay. The patient and I were at our wit's end. I changed it 3 times and the shift before me 6 times. Jessica came from her unit to mine to help me. She helped and taught me new techniques. The patient and I were grateful. The ostomy stayed on for the rest of my shift and Jessica messaged to check and see if it was holding up. Like I said Jessica saved me that night. She not only cares about the patients but her coworkers too.

Thank you, Jessica, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
