Peyton's quick response and action saved my life as I was able to be taken to the hospital and OR quickly to resolve the situation, and I will forever be grateful.
Peyton is an incredible home health nurse to our son, who has an ultra-rare genetic syndrome. Peyton is kind and compassionate in her care of him and our family, and she is diligent in making sure all his needs are met. Our son and our family think the world of her and her care helps him thrive and be the best he can be. Recently, I (the client’s Mom) was recovering from surgery when I suddenly had an emergent internal post-surgical arterial bleed. I realized that I was in a critical situation and called out to Peyton, and she came to my room immediately. She called my husband and 911 and stayed by my side while I was in and out of consciousness as I lost over 1 L of blood internally. Peyton's quick response and action saved my life as I was able to be taken to the hospital and OR quickly to resolve the situation, and I will forever be grateful. Had she not been present, my outcome could have been much different.
