Stacey was the nurse for my daughter for 2 days while she was in comprehensive care for lung surgery. She was not only nice and patient, but also acted professionally and with compassion. When my daughter found out she'd have to stay another day, she noticed she was upset, and very quickly asked the doctor if she could get off her oxygen and also be able to take a walk outside, which he agreed to. That lifted my daughter's spirits tremendously! The next day when it was looking like my daughter might have to stay another day, she suggested to the doctor to put her on a chest valve so she could go home. The doctor said that was a good idea which my daughter was ecstatic over! She was thrilled to be going home and has seemed to make more strides on recovery since being home. She also made sure my daughter was comfortable, washed her hair, was gentle when changing bandages, and answered all questions patiently. I was impressed with all your nursing staff (everyone was very nice and had a good sense of humor), but Stacey really went out of her way to make my daughter's experience the best it could be under the circumstances.
