Madison Sheafe is an incredible nurse who is selfless, empathetic, compassionate, committed, technical, and masterful at changing ostomy bags. Madison is cheerful and has a heart of gold which is perfect for dealing with sick babies and worried parents.
Madison has been our daughter's nurse for many months. It has been wonderful to have continuity of exceptional care. Our daughter's journey in the NICU hasn't been easy. Her care required a lot of attention to detail. This type of care was intimidating, but Madison was not intimidated. She quickly dove in and bravely welcomed the challenge.
Madison is a selfless nurse who truly cares. She continued to be a primary nurse for our daughter even after our daughter became more stable. Madison proved herself to be someone who is truly committed. Madison asked to switch her schedule to be with our daughter. Our daughter has a special bond with Madison. When our daughter was fussy, Madison knew how to console her.
Madison is perceptive and quickly alerted the medical team when our daughter needed any changes. She was the first nurse to notice an odd discharge from our daughter's incision site.
We called Madison in the evenings and early mornings, and she provided very professional updates in a pleasant and calm tone. She knows what we need to hear. We always feel like we are there whenever Madison watches our daughter. Madison has a strong ability to connect with babies and parents.
Madison leaves us thoughtful messages that come from our daughter such as "Last night I was such a brave girl for all my labs, even my Covid swab. My nurse was so proud of me." Madison's considerate notes always make us feel like we are there with our daughter. We even take pictures of Madison's notes and share them with daughter's grandparents.
We will never forget Madison and her incredible care of our daughter in the NICU. She is an extraordinary nurse.
