Gustavo is unbelievable at what he does for our unit and actually brings us together as nurses.
Gustavo consistently provides exceptional compassionate care to any patient, coworker, or family member he encounters. He will volunteer to assist with any patient admission or transfer, and even volunteer to work as charge nurse on any day of the week. I believe he is one of our most empathetic nurses. He consistently manages to surpass the bar of patient advocacy and care. Tonight, he ran over from the other side of our unit that he was working on because he was concerned about someone's telemonitor. He hurried over to our side to make sure the patient was okay. Gustavo is unbelievable at what he does for our unit and actually brings us together as nurses. He is always willing to help his coworkers with any sort of patient-centered care.
One shift I was so overwhelmed with my patient assignment; anything that could possibly happen was happening all at once. I'm a new graduate nurse and I was visibly overwhelmed. Gustavo pulled me aside, reassured me, and worked alongside me to ensure that my patients and I were comfortable and okay. He is constantly thinking of his coworkers. In addition, he's thoughtful and brings our staff members goodies to make our shifts better and will strive to ensure our patient's necessities are met. I believe if anyone deserves this award, it's Gustavo.
