I want to recognize Jeeja because of her exceptional nursing skills, professionalism, and compassion. Jeeja has been working at WPH since 2005 which coincides exactly with my numerous hospitalizations. I often found myself extremely ill with infections, in terrible pain, and confused by my placement in non-contact rooms. I have been hospitalized for one to two weeks out of every six weeks due to a rare set of immune system disorders. No matter what my needs were, Jeeja always seemed to intuitively know exactly how to ease my pain, explain away my fear and to calmly address whatever challenge I had begun to face. Jeeja is a nurse who can rise to the challenge of any medical situation and will not rest for even a minute until her patient's needs have been successfully met. Jeeja is an invaluable asset and an extraordinary woman.
