Lisa's extraordinary response to emergencies is lifesaving.
Lisa Shillito is an outstanding nurse in both skill and character. She does her job with ease and confidence while exerting a calm demeanor with her patients and colleagues. She is always willing to help and offer any insight and knowledge. Lisa is an experienced nurse that new nurses and other experienced nurses look up to.

Lisa is one of those nurses on our floor who is a resource for everyone. Her years of experience and the calm manner that she exudes make her approachable and an asset to our unit. I have seen her in many leadership roles as a Charge Nurse, preceptor, and role model, and she excels in all of them. Countless times, Lisa has picked up extra shifts or stayed longer when the floor was short-staffed. She did this not only for the sake of patient safety but also to lessen the burdens of her colleagues.
***
Lisa cares deeply for her patients and goes to great lengths to make them comfortable. I have seen her be an advocate for her patients, especially during COVID. These actions demonstrate what a professional and compassionate nurse she is.

***
Having been a nurse for many years, I continuously look to her for nursing advice in challenging situations. I know I can count on her 110% if needed in an emergency or even with the normal daily tasks of nursing. Her extraordinary response to emergencies is lifesaving.

Lisa is truly an amazing asset to our team. I feel very fortunate to be able to work alongside her through the laughs, the sweat, and the tears.
