October 2016 Honoree
sandra halquist, BSN, RN
Patients, physicians and fellow nurses alike praise Sandra Halquist for the remarkable care and compassion she brings to work every day.
***
When a patient looks like a new person after receiving good nursing care, I explain to my residents and fellows, that is the Sandra Effect.
***
She was warm, caring, concerned, friendly, and above all, professional and accommodating to my needs of the moment. My dad died in peace and comfort thanks to her efforts and those of your exceptional nursing staff.
***
Sandra is an expert nurse with fine-tuned clinical and critical thinking skills. But most importantly, Sandra is compassionate and caring.
***
She makes an effort to learn what is important to the patient and their family, and then she provides that.
