Kenny's shift was actually ending, yet without complaining, he stayed late to ensure that this person had everything they needed to receive proper care.
There was a patient that was in ICU who desperately needed a CorTrack feeding tube placed. However, none of the staff had taken the training needed for placement. Kenny heard me talking with the ED charge about this and volunteered to place the CorTrack, as he was the only person in the hospital with the qualifications. His shift was actually ending, yet without complaining, he stayed late to ensure that this person had everything they needed to receive proper care. He was also able to do this normally uncomfortable procedure in such a proficient way as to make it as pain-free for the patient as possible. Kenny exhibited every virtue of nursing with this act and truly made a difference. The ICU, the patient, and I were so thankful for Kenny that night. He is a literal Rock Star!

Kenny was very friendly, efficient, and expeditious in rendering the care that I needed and required. He has a great rapport with fellow staff and colleagues and made me feel very welcome and reassured me that everything was going to be okay. Kenny sets a high standard for others to emulate. Kenny is a great credit to himself, Renown, and the nursing profession. Thank you Kenny for lending me your care.
