On the evening my husband was moved from the CTCU to a stepdown unit, it was a tough transition.  I was heading down the hall in tears, when I passed Tim. He stopped and asked if everything was okay, and I explained what happened. He said he was going to go check on him, and he did, and things became much better. Tim truly cares about his patients and their families. 

Tim always went above and beyond in his job as a nurse. It was important to him that his patients’ pain was tolerable, and they had everything they needed and always asked our family if we needed anything. He always brightened the room, and our spirits always smiled and had us smiling and laughing with him during a difficult time for all of us. You could tell that he truly cared about his patients. He wasn’t just doing his job. He is an amazing nurse and very caring. 

Tim was always pleasant and other staff said to us, at times, what a great person he was and that patients loved him. He was a great person to work with. 

At the end of Tim’s shift, on his third day straight of working, Tim stopped by to see my husband and ask how things were going and how my husband was doing. That means a lot to all of us. 

Tim was a Godsend to our family during a very hard and emotional time. He brightened our days and our outlook on things. He deserves to be recognized for the great person and great nurse he is.
