Not only was Kara great while I was admitted, but her care and concern went past that.
I was recently admitted to nursing unit 6C for complications due to my medical condition. I have not had an easy course throughout many medical treatments, which have ultimately left me with an amputation, limiting my physical mobility. All the nurses on 6C were wonderful but Kara stood out. Not only was Kara great while I was admitted, but her care and concern went past that. Her care was coming from the heart and general concern for my wellbeing. Her dedication to me as a patient and a human being is remarkable, and I am thankful that we have crossed paths. The entire staff on 6C deserves praise, but Kara is truly an angel.

Note: This is Kara's 2nd DAISY Award!
