I was transferred back to Avera McKennan after complications from surgery. When I arrived, I was greeted by nurse Tasha and a nursing student. They both welcomed me, quickly made sure all my vitals were up to snuff, made sure I was comfortable and explained what happened causing me to be brought back to Sioux Falls.

Tasha greeted my wife when she arrived and sat down with her and explained everything that had taken place.

Tasha is a sterling example of what a nurse exudes: knowledge of her job and patients, caring, very easy to communicate with, and not feeling left out of the goings on.

Tasha is a treasure, a great young lady, and a gem for this hospital.
