I was worried about coming into a rehab but thanks to nurses like Tim I think I'm gonna be okay.

Timothy did an excellent job explaining the pharmacology of the medications used in treating alcoholism. His explanations were lucid and significant to me. Reading is one of my coping tools. I am very interested in the mechanism of depression. He was kind enough to provide me with a volume on depression.

Tim comes to work each day displaying a passion for patient care. Tim's attitude and professionalism is strong and positive. Tim displays great knowledge, wisdom, and empathy during practice. Tim makes sure patients feel special and cared for.

When I came to the C2 unit I was at the lowest point of my life and Timothy has been Godsend. I never took into account all that nurses do. It always seemed he had time to help with a problem give some advice, answer questions, or just listen. What a kind compassionate human being. Even when he was working a lot of overtime, you would never see it in his attitude he always had a smile and kind word and was always there to help with whatever we needed. He even started a chair yoga group in the morning to help us loosen up. I was worried about coming into a rehab but thanks to nurses like Tim I think I'm gonna be okay. Thanks to Tim and others like him.

Tim is a nurse who takes being a nurse to a whole new level. Tim will go above and beyond for patients such as advocating and trying new ways to keep patients engaged in treatment. Tim is a team player and always works with other staff of a multidisciplinary team. Tim will always stand up for patients, and put their safety and treatment first.

From the moment I met Tim, I've found him to be a kind and gentle soul, someone who genuinely loves their job. When I've asked him for things, he always has attended to me as soon as he could. He is caring beyond what I've asked for him and has consistently & sincerely asked how I've been doing & if I'm feeling ok. He helped adjust my meals, as a diabetic, and has been very supportive toward me maintaining a healthy glucose level. Overall, he has impressed me with his sincere kindness and care for his role in my care and recovery.
