It’s an understatement to say that she goes above and beyond, because she goes even further than that.
Candius Cummins went above and beyond while my husband was at Methodist. She answered all questions and was so thorough in her care. She has a true caring heart and is truly in the right position. We were blessed to meet her.

In the middle of my case, which was very rough after a colon resection, Candius listened to me and made sure to answer all my questions. Even though she was busy with so many things, she made sure to get all my consults from my surgeon and kidney doctor scheduled quickly.

She is very mature, energetic and has good sense of humor.  It’s an understatement to say that she goes above and beyond because she goes even further than that. She stays late to make sure her patients are in perfect shape. She stays late to help night shift get a boost at the beginning of their shifts. She always makes sure her patients and their family members are comfortable and will hunt down extra recliners or even beds to ensure their well-being. All these examples are things Candius doesn’t have to do, but wants to do them. She is humble, patient, kind, giving – in short, everything anyone would what their nurse to be. Whether providing care at a patient’s bedside, comforting a worried family, or working side-by-side with a teammate, you have shown all the qualities of an outstanding nurse.
