Tina made sure the doctor examined my husband's feeding tube before he was released. She had been treating it and was a bit unsatisfied with the look of it. As it turns out, the tube had to be taken out because it was infected even in the stomach. He had to have a PICC line put in; had he been released it would have been a terrible situation according to the doctor. Tina also checked in on him often and was very informative to the family. Thank God for nurses like her and aides on the 6th floor.

I remember when I first started here and Tina gave me report after her day shift. We had a new admission and she stayed late and helped me finish documentation and call doctors. I was new at the time and truly appreciated her taking the time to help me. This also led to better patient care. She is a great listener and is thorough with her work. She never leaves tasks for the always exudes a positive presence.
