Torey D Hudelson, RN

I was admitted to the VA Hospital and placed on the 6th floor due to a blood clot in my lung. That night, I began experiencing severe pain that made me shake so badly that I grabbed the handrail and started jerking on the bed. A nurse came in, I think I may have scared her, but she calmed me down, went to get medication, and stayed with me for a while. I know she had other patients to care for, but she kept coming back to check on me. I call that Advocacy! The nurse’s name was Torey Hudelson, she went beyond the call of duty! Thank you, Torey, for taking care of this old Vietnam Vet – especially since people didn’t care for us much when we came home from the war.
