Kerry M McOsker, RN

Kerry Mcosker RN was the angel who parted the ED curtains in the early morning hours and brought compassion and skill to my dear one. After a horrendous overnight back and forth to this hospital for multiple catheterizations, pain, bleeding, blood clots, and worry. Nurse Mcosker listened to our request to try a size 14 and knew what direction to orient the curve of the coude. She informed us that she, too, was “meeting resistance” and asked if she should persist with the attempt to insert. We urged her to to please continue to try as we had no choice; the urinary retention needed to be relieved. Her success, where all others have failed, allowed us to travel comfortably to my friend’s urologist's office immediately that morning for further planning. Thank you, so very much, Kerry! We are aware that it was a busy night in the ED, including a birth, but you were calm, friendly, and so empathetic somehow despite the circumstances.
