Have you ever met someone and knew instantly that they were giving you their 100%? It is hard to come by someone who is so genuine and compassionate, but after just a few minutes of being in Ruth's care, I knew that I was going to be given patience, comfort, and the encouragement I needed to get through it all. It is more than obvious this is not just a job to her. You can feel Ruth's passion and "virtual" hugs as soon as she enters the room. At 79 I was thrown back by the news of my illness and that my new source of nourishment would need to be given through a feeding tube. Ruth gave me the confidence I needed to take care of my feeding independently. I felt like I had climbed a mountain. Ruth is a true DAISY Nurse.

Thank you, Ruth, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
