Compassionate, loving, funny all while going out of her way to create a more light-hearted comfortable stay. Nichol Rouse has improved my mental and physical health and overall look on my recuperation. She is spontaneous and thoughtful, she pops in my room just to make sure I'm doing fine. I can honestly say that I smile just with the thought of her being on staff for me. Nichol is a great asset to the nursing community. Her love of dogs is only rivaled by her fantastic nursing skills. Kootenai Health is very fortunate to have Nichol as a member of their team. Thank you, Nichol for being you.
