Kathlene really helped me last night. She saw that I was feeling really depressed about being back in the hospital, and she sat and talked with me for at least 30 minutes. I was discharged 10 days ago and am now back again with a severe infection and the need for strong antibiotics. I have been dealing with this infection for a long time. Kathlene did not brush me off, and she did not leave the room in a hurry. She stayed, sat, or listened, giving her undivided attention. She treated me like a human being. She patiently explained the treatment plan, my medications, and all the instructions the doctor had ordered. If I didn’t understand something, she patiently repeated it for me.

She explained that I needed to be admitted to treat the severe infection in my body. She explained everything to me and answered all of my questions. My anxiety went down, and I felt at peace and comfortable after talking with Kathlene. She was very professional and kind. She stayed on top of giving me my medication. I didn’t have to call her; she came right away every time like “I got this.” For the first time, my mind was at peace, and I was able to sleep well. I am so grateful for the time and attention she provided. She demonstrates that she genuinely cares for her patients and loves what she does. Thank you.

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