I am a nurse on South Wing 5. I received an admission, a young woman burned in a house fire that not only burned her but destroyed her house and two cats. Needless to say the patient was emotional, almost inconsolable at times. Sarah Johnson stopped by to see if I needed any help (because that is who she is) and I asked if she could help get the patient in the shower which she gladly did. Sarah has an amazing way with people and the patient clearly began to become less frantic. She was able to shower. Once she was out of the shower, Sarah kneeled down and got eye to eye with her, and asked if she could do some reiki. The patient, with tears falling down her face, just nodded yes. I watched as Sarah closed her eyes and without touching put her hands below the patient's burned back. I watched every muscle in my patient’s body relax, her breathing became even and for the first time in hours, she was at peace. When Sarah finished, my patient barely resembled the shattered and burned woman whom I had admitted. Sarah has always been a beloved co-worker whom I can only assume goes above and beyond for their patients, but this time I saw her in action and there is zero doubt in my mind that she is the embodiment of who and what is an amazing nurse and an amazing human being. Thank you so much, Sarah Johnson, you make lives better!
