Leah Meyers, BSN, RN

Leah was my incredible nurse who was taking care of me right in the middle of my 6-day stay at Abington. I was just so miserable with an NG tube in my nose, nauseated, throwing up, just really miserable. Leah was there when I needed her the most - without me pressing the call button, Leah knew that I was not in a good way, both mentally and physically. She came in several times during each of her shifts to check on me, just stopped to chat for a few minutes about anything, just to get my mind off of feeling really down and bad physically. I asked her for Peppermint oil after another person introduced me to it - she came in several times during her shifts to freshen the air with it. Leah was very calming - I believe she instinctively knew I was down and out - and she knew what to say, talk to me about, to help me get out of the mood/place I was at. We even talked about Disney - how my family is a very big Disney family. She took me to my happy place - it was just natural for her - showed how caring and compassionate she is about her job and caring for me and her other patients. I believe she deserves special recognition for the way she treated me, because I know that she does the same for all of her other patients. Please grant her this piece of recognition to help make her day! Thank you, Leah!
