I am so proud to call Marie my nurse. Marie knew something was wrong with her patient and used her instinct and nursing knowledge to do everything in her power to help this patient. Marie called the patient's medical providers to discuss some abnormalities as well as her own concerns. As the patient deteriorated, an emergency code blue was called. Codes can be so scary, especially for a new nurse, but Marie didn't cower away from the stress. She was able to give information about the patient to all medical providers who rushed in to help during the emergency.
When the patient was moved to another unit, Marie could have easily let it go into someone else's hands, but she didn't. She stayed with the patient and did everything she could to help. Not once did she stop showing dedication and compassion to this patient. She trusted her gut and knew exactly what to do without a second thought. That's why I am so proud to call her my nurse. Marie does everything in her power to make her patient's happy and comfortable. She calms their nerves when they are scared, and she helps her fellow coworkers any time they ask. Marie is overall a well-rounded nurse, a wonderful coworker and a joy to be around.
