Marissa Grimes, BSN, RN

In October, Marissa was the nurse for a patient who was admitted to the ICU after surgery. Marissa contacted the family for status updates and consent for a procedure. In a very short amount of time, Marissa showed her commitment to detail, professionalism, and skill for explaining things. She was patient and very thorough as she went the extra mile that night. The patient had specific beliefs as a Catholic and Marissa showed compassion and time to care enough to inquire about the faith and what she could do to accommodate for that. She went out of her way to contact another priest for anointing. The family is grateful for the kindness and compassion that she showed during the stay.
