Nurse Michelle has been an extraordinary presence during my mother's stay in the UCLA ICU. From the moment she began caring for my mother, it was clear that Michelle embodies the true essence of nursing. Her compassion, care, and attention to detail have provided our family with comfort and assurance during a challenging time. Michelle goes above and beyond in every aspect of her role. She takes the time to explain each step of my mother's care, ensuring we understand the treatment plan and answering all of our questions with patience and clarity.

Her thoroughness in monitoring my mother's condition and her promptness in addressing any concerns have given us confidence that my mother is in the best hands. What sets Michelle apart is her genuine kindness and empathy. She treats my mother with the utmost respect and dignity, always speaking to her with a gentle and reassuring tone, even when she may not be fully aware of her surroundings. Michelle understands that nursing is not just about administering medication or following procedures; it's about connecting with patients and their families, offering support and comfort during some of the most difficult moments of their lives.

Michelle's dedication to her patients and her profession is truly inspiring. She is a shining example of what it means to be a nurse, and I am deeply grateful for the exceptional care she has provided to my mother.
