September 2016 Honoree
olivia del rosario, RN
My husband came into Boswell ED with chest pain, nausea, and sweating. Because his heart enzymes were only slightly elevated, heart attack was ruled out. All day and night Monday and Tuesday he had recurring chest pain and his heart enzymes started rising. By Tuesday night my husband and the whole family were exhausted. That night we met the night nurse, Olivia. She was calm, sweet, patient, articulate and showed care about my husband's condition. At 10pm that Tuesday night, I went home to rest and my daughter and grand-daughter stayed with grandpa/Dad, they got so tired during the night that Olivia had a bed brought into the room so they could rest. I call this "going the extra mile for your patient!".
Thank you, Olivia, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
