I have had the privilege of working alongside Kathy and getting to know her and her generous, empathetic, kind heart. I have looked to Kathy for advice on patient care, help with solving problems at the bedside, and as a friend to lean on. Kathy has one of the purest hearts and is simply "one of the best." She treats every patient, family member, and colleague with the utmost respect. She is a critical thinker, quick to act, extremely observant, and an exceptional advocate for her patient. Kathy has a great rapport with all care team members, is respected and appreciated by patient families, and extremely loved by her nursing colleagues. Her energetic demeanor, positive attitude, and passion for her work are palpable and contagious.
