I was admitted to the hospital with severe abdominal pain and nausea. From Wednesday evening until Friday midday, I had a lot of contact with Raj, as I believe she was on 12-hour shifts. My mother had just died a few days before, and her funeral was scheduled for Thursday. Raj was so very sympathetic, listening to my story about my mother's death, and having to miss her funeral because of my hospitalization. She took the time to listen with compassion and gentle patience, even when she had to care for other patients and had tasks to complete while caring for me. She was also very gentle but adept and efficient when giving me injections or putting in my IV. She answered my questions thoroughly and clearly.
DCMH is fortunate to have a nurse such as Raj working at its facility. I'm sure she is and will continue to be, a blessing to her patients and colleagues. My husband, who was understandably very worried about my several possible diagnoses, was also very impressed with Raj's efficiency and kindness to us. We believe that her extraordinary care definitely makes her a DAISY Nurse.
