maria springer, RN, BSN

I was admitted for chest pain and continuous monitoring. All indications were that I was experiencing cardiac problems. After a thorough evaluation and an MRI I was diagnosed with a mass in the pituitary stalk. Maria was in the room with me and my family when the doctor presented us with the results. She was sympathetic and compassionate to my 9 year old son who was very emotional. She took him for a walk while the doctors were discussing options with me and my wife. She went to get my son a drink and helped him deal with my health issue. She was exceptional and demonstrates all of the qualities you would want for a nurse. I therefore recommend Maria for a DAISY Award.
