August 2014 Honoree
nicole taborski, RN
We had a young woman with gastric cancer. She received chemo every other week on Sunday. Nicole had been assigned to her several times. The patient was having a reaction to the chemo, needing special pre-meds. Nicole did such a great job that the patient became very comfortable with her, even requesting that she be her nurse for chemo administration. The last dose was scheduled for a Sunday when Nicole was on vacation. Because she wasn't leaving town right away, Nicole changed her vacation/work schedule so she could give the patient her complicated chemo. The patient was very appreciative as was the staff. Nicole is a great nurse and knew the patient needed her to be the one to give her the last dose.
Thank you, Nicole, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
