Gail is the kindest, nicest person I have ever met. She is a joy to work with. I know that when Gail is on with me, it's going to be a great day. It is hard to choose just one instance of when she exemplifies the core values of Bryan Health. She treats each patient she cares for as a special individual. She takes time to explain the procedure carefully and listens to their questions and concerns with care. You can tell she is listening with empathy and compassion.
As Gail brings the patient to the lab for a procedure, she ensures the patients' utmost comfort by offering warm blankets and extra pillows and making sure the patient is covered. She always tries to make sure the patient is as comfortable as possible in an unknown and uncomfortable situation. She is always putting the patient first.
As a teammate and coworker, Gail is amazing to work with. She is always willing to help in any way, oftentimes without being asked. She is the kind of teammate I want to work with. She is friendly, hard-working and a great resource for questions. She is the perfect example of a wonderful nurse and sets a great example for new nurses.
