Jessica is described as going above and beyond time and time again because, to her, the patient is the only thing that matters. An example is provided of how a patient's health took a drastic turn for the worse. Jessica advocated for the patient until a resident escalated the patient's condition to his supervisors. She stayed with the patient and helped transfer him to ICU.
A co-worker states that "she is the reason I am the nurse I am today, as she was the best preceptor and mentor I could have ever been blessed with."
