While my mother was in the hospital, Raegan was her nurse, and I will be forever grateful for the extraordinary care she provided. As a nurse myself, I understand how uniquely challenging it can be to care for the loved one of someone in the profession. There’s often added pressure, higher expectations, and the unspoken weight of being watched through a clinical lens. Raegan handled it all with complete grace, professionalism, and compassion. From the beginning, she took the time to ensure my family was informed and involved. She regularly updated us on my mother’s condition, explained lab values in a clear and respectful way, and helped us understand the progression of her care without ever making us feel like we were asking too much. Her calm, steady presence was something extraordinary.

What I believe truly set Raegan apart was her ability to balance clinical excellence with genuine empathy. She didn’t just take care of my mother; she cared for my entire family. She listened, she reassured, and she treated us not just as another patient's family, but as people going through something painful and personal. Raegan is a true example of what it means to live out the Freeman values. Her knowledge, heart, and professionalism made a lasting impact on us, and I can say without hesitation that she is everything a DAISY nurse should be. Raegan, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything you did for my mom and for our entire family. Your care, kindness, and presence were truly a blessing to us all.
