Kelly Johnson has the willingness to extend compassion and caring to her patients even when she is fighting to beat breast cancer herself. She always uses nursing interventions to improve her patient's health, including a lot of dietary teaching and a lot of education in the benefits of a healthy lifestyle including exercise and a strong support system. If the patient has any problems, she always makes sure there is a follow-up plan in place. She is always giving the patients a shoulder to unburden themselves on, including a shoulder for the patient to cry on. She understands home care nursing is about caring for the patient, their environment, their family and working with the resources that are unique to every patient. She is confident in her ability to improve the patient's lives with community resources, education, and mental, and physical support in many different forms. She is a great support to the employees that work with her in the field and I am proud to call her the best coworker of my career.
