Kelly received a patient who had been in a house fire. Upon inspection of the patient's belongings, she saw that the patient's clothing was covered with mold from being placed in a damp bag. The patient really wanted to keep the clothing because the fire possibly destroyed all the patient's clothing. Kelly found a washer and dryer on one of the units and ran back and forth to do the patient's laundry while caring for her other patients. She also brought in some other clothing for the patient. This is just one of the many examples of how Kelly goes above and beyond for her patients. She is such an amazing nurse. Great job Kelly!

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