Jasmine expressed her concern for my husband's condition as soon as he was admitted to the SICU department. She knew he was nervous and a little worried about his blood clot. She really explained to him that the care he was going to get was the best and that they dealt with this DVT often. He calmed right down. She is extremely gifted with making a patient feel safe and comfortable. The short time we were there she made all of us feel like we were her family. I wish everyone could be as patient, understanding, efficient, and caring as Jasmine.
We fell in love with Jasmine and I know she was born to be a nurse and caregiver. She could tell when we were worried or concerned and she always came up with just the right thing to pick us up.
Her smile will warm any heart. She is great. My husband hates hospitals, but he really was impressed with his care from all the staff and said a person would not mind being there. Thank you for an Extraordinary Nurse.
