Lisa was especially kind with our longtime friend as she battled bone cancer. Lisa was very kind no matter if G was having a better day or quickly declining. She was especially kind on the day of G's passing helping us, her longtime friends and caregiver, as we dealt with the end. All of us consider her kindness and sensitivity amazing.

In taking care of G, I was blessed with meeting Lisa and having her as our primary nurse. G loved Lisa and most of the time refused anyone else. Lisa always made sure we had everything we needed and got what we didn't that very day. We never had to wait or go without. She took excellent care of G and always answered any questions and if she didn't know, she found out. On the day of G's passing, I don't know how I could have done it without Lisa. She was right there and stayed until G was removed from her house and as long after as we needed.
On the day that G passed, Lisa was more than a nurse that day. She was a true caring friend who was there for me and others. I have worked with a lot of hospice nurses and never have I seen one do as much for a patient or family as Lisa. She deserves to be acknowledged for her super support and dedication and the professionalism of her job. Lisa is an amazing 5-star nurse.
