stephen hough, RN, BSN

Steve is one of the most compassionate nurses I have ever worked with. During the time Steve has worked on 6SAC numerous patients and family members have requested he take care of them. As his team leader, I have been called to the room to hear the rave reviews about Steve’s extraordinary care and how he made a difference for them that day.

Coworkers know Steve is a reliable buddy and are comfortable seeking his help and advice. He is always ready to graciously lend a hand and with a smile. Steve never hesitates to change assignments or pick up that extra patient during his shift. During a crisis, Steve is always a calm, caring advocate for his patient. Even when a coworker’s patient is unstable, Steve will be there to facilitate what is best for the patient.

It is always a pleasure to work with Steve. His compassion for his patients is unlimited. His passion for his work and the caring attitude for his coworkers is astounding. Not a day goes by on our busy unit that someone doesn’t compliment Steve for his calm, caring demeanor. He is a truly an extraordinary nurse who makes a big difference in the lives of his patients.
