Kristine had an especially difficult shift today and she handled the chaos and craziness without flaw. She was thrown into one of the most critical patient situations I have seen since I've been in the ICU. She is so smart, poised, and quick-thinking. I aspire to be able to handle a situation in the ways that she did. Through it all, she was able to help stabilize the patient enough to transfer her to Main Campus.

Throughout the day, I not only saw her save a life, but she emptied trash bins herself instead of asking for help. She is one of the most knowledgeable, competent, and dedicated nurses I have ever met! She works with efficiency which clearly showed on this day. Kristine is no doubt a dependable nurse who can overcome obstacles of all sorts. This day has made it clear that Kristine is what I believe is a true Daisy Award Honoree!
