Kathleen took care of my father who was admitted for chronic diarrhea. He had a CT scan shortly after admission and it was determined that there was a blockage in his colon. After one day his abdomen was increasingly distended and he was in a lot of discomfort. As soon as Kathleen arrived in his room, it was clear that this nurse was fast, knowledgeable, and efficient, not to mention polite, personable and caring. I believe it is because of Kathleen that my father had a repeat CT scan. It was determined that the blockage was now almost completely occluding his bowels . . . As I am writing this my father is in surgery and we, the family, are hoping for a good outcome. This hospital and all patients in Kathleen's care should be forever grateful for her fabulousness! Thank you so much to Kathleen!
