Jenn made my stay as pleasurable as possible. She was the nurse who admitted me after hours in the ER on Friday. From the minute I was on her floor, she continued to do small things that made a big impact in terms of feeling reassured and more comfortable. Right away, she thoroughly went through my med routine and made appropriate arrangements. She also made sure I had a meal tray when dining services was closing shortly after I was brought to the floor. During the night, she would chart in my room when I was having a hard time sleeping. It made me feel better to have her there when I was in a lot of pain. Despite having a lot of work to do, she always took a few moments to chat with me and that really cheered me up. She also noticed important details. The night after my surgery, she noticed that I was in a bad position and she called an aide to shift me into a better posture. It hurt a lot in the moment but I felt much better after. I would not have known that that would have made such a difference or been cognizant enough to communicate my needs in that moment. She was a step ahead.
