All four of my children and my husband and son-in-law were all impressed with the way LaDonna treated us.
LaDonna was so caring to my father in ICU and so tender towards my family, we were all so impressed. She wanted to make sure that all of us were able to say goodbye to my father and even took the time herself to come out there and get each one of us so that we could. I watched LaDonna when she did things and she was very gentle and compassionate. It made things a lot easier, and she said some things that really soothed us at the time we needed it. I still keep thinking about her and didn’t want to go without saying something. She treated my father and us like we were her own family.

My father also told me two weeks prior when he was in the hospital that he felt this hospital was top-notch. You have a lot of friendly people that care. He said they really know what they’re doing, and they pay attention to you. Thank you for training such good nurses! God bless you all! My goal is to be as compassionate as LaDonna was to my father. She went above and beyond what she really had to do and treated him like he was her own father. All four of my children and my husband and son-in-law were all impressed with the way LaDonna treated us, and we have better memories at the end even though it was a tragic accident. I want to thank the whole hospital for their compassion and good work.
