Thank you for saving my life. You were in a situation that was not good and knew just what to do. Around midnight, it was time for my walk after my cath procedure and the hallway was pretty empty. The nurses' station was halfway down the hall from my room. As I walked down the hall my leg suddenly felt warm and wet and I discovered that blood was flowing from my leg all over the place. You got me to my room quickly and immediately put pressure on my leg to stop the bleeding. You tried to call for help but the door was closed and no one could hear the call. You didn't risk leaving me alone to get help until another employee came in to take over compressing my artery before I passed out. I want to thank you for saving my life and for being my hero! God bless you!

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