April 2017 Honoree
kacie mccreesh, BSN, RN
Kacie just got finished explaining all the tubes, monitors, and machines hooked up to my husband. This was a tremendous help to my daughter, his father, sister, and me. Kacie gave me a huge hug and said, "We will take good care of A". She had me select a heart pillow that he would prefer.
"What kind of music does A enjoy?" Kacie asked me as my husband was in the Open Heart Unit immediately after his surgery. With the help of my daughter, because I temporarily forgot the singer's name, I said, "Adele….I guarantee he will wake up to Adele." In the afternoon, Kacie came out to the waiting area and excitedly exclaimed to us, "He woke up to Adele. It was amazing."
My husband was in OHU for several days before going to transition. Kacie made a point to come back to his room to visit, bring a huge smile to his face, and give me a hug. Kacie is perfect for caring for patients immediately after surgery in intensive critical care. She is a huge reason for the rapid recovery of A.

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