LaRiah A Sykes, BSN, RN

This was my first time being admitted to the hospital, and I was extremely anxious. From the moment LaRiah started caring for me, she showed such kindness, patience, and compassion. She took the time to gently and thoroughly explain everything to me, often without me even having to ask, which helped ease my fears more than I can express.

LaRiah has a calm, reassuring presence that made me feel genuinely safe and comfortable in her care. I never felt like a burden or like my questions weren’t important. She created a space where I felt seen, heard, and cared for. Her ability to recognize when I was overwhelmed or anxious and respond with such empathy is something I’ll never forget.

I truly can’t thank her enough for how she made me feel during such a vulnerable time. She’s an incredible nurse.
