Caroleen's smile lights up a room, and it is reflected in the smiles that brighten her patients' faces when she comes to care for them.
Caroleen is an absolutely exceptional nurse! This nurse leads by example in every interaction with coworkers and patients alike. The phenomenal care that is provided shows. There is a reason Caroleen is constantly sought out as a preceptor and charge nurse.

There was one day I had a very heavy patient paired assignment, and Caroleen helped me constantly throughout the day, from passing meds, to helping with documentation, to conducting a line change. Caroleen checked on me throughout the day.

Caroleen's smile lights up a room, and it is reflected in the smiles that brighten her patients' faces when she comes to care for them. She is a dependable coworker in the good times and bad. Caroleen's skills are unmatched by any other, and she is able to stay composed under pressure yet assertive to get patients what they need.

Caroleen genuinely loves bedside nursing care, and it’s apparent that it is the true nature and her true calling. Caroleen’s warm heart and generous spirit are qualities we can only hope shine through to our future generation of nurses!
