Lacey created a safe haven with conversation and fun stories and genuine curiosity. Lacey went above and beyond as my nurse.
The level of care Lacey has provided me during my hospitalization was truly the best I have ever received while dealing with my illness. She had the patience of a saint explaining my various procedures/tests all with the most amazing attitude. Lacey provided a very comforting atmosphere during a nerve-wracking and stressful situation to not only me but my family as well. She was a true advocate for me and thoroughly explained my plan of care and listened, then asked if there was any I wanted to achieve while I was here. I’ve never had such an amazing nurse. She truly deserves to be recognized for the AWESOME nurse she is. Thank you so much, Lacey! Lacey created a safe haven with conversation and fun stories and genuine curiosity. Lacey went above and beyond as my nurse. My whole life turned upside down due to a bad surgery. Lacey treated me with dignity and compassion. My story is so insane to tell but Lacey was ready to listen and there wasn’t a hint of jealousy in the air. When you are that sick the right person inspires you to get better. For days I was very depressed until I had Lacey for my nursing staff. The depression was so bad I didn’t even turn the TV on. By her making me feel comfortable I started taking more walks and doing more exercises. Without her, I would have been still feeling sorry for myself and very alone. Specifically, she mentioned that it takes a stranger to offer reassurance before a person will accept it. Lacey, you have no idea how you helped me.
