James was recognized by a patient's husband for going above and beyond to ensure his wife was taken care of with great compassion and understanding. His patient, a woman who was having trouble with the after-effects of chemotherapy, was transferred to the ICU from the medical floor one evening around midnight. James was her nurse upon her arrival in ICU and stayed with her for several hours while she was feeling unwell. The following morning, she relayed to her husband how thankful she was for James and his care during the night. She hoped he would be her night nurse that evening too, and she was pleased to find out he was. The care James gave to her was noticed and appreciated by both the patient and her husband.
