She was so kind and caring of my husband while he was critically ill and dying. She cared for him like I would have, had I been a CCU nurse. She gave us her undivided attention each and every time we entered the unit. While he was dying she eased our hurt and made sure he was comfortable while passing on. We all just loved her care and compassion.
She was so kind and loving to all my family. Shellbie was helpful in making decisions easier for us, by understanding our feelings and being very professional about her duties and responsibilities. She loved and cared for my husband during his critically ill passing as sweet and loving as if he was her family member.
Shellbie treated my grandfather as if he were her own. She was always very kind, friendly and professional. Very spiritual and gave excellent advice. She always told us what she was doing before she did it.
She showed my dad such awesome care while he was in the hospital. My family and I felt such compassion and care from Shellbie in a crucial and serious situation. She answered our questions and showed my dad professional and incredible care. She really deserves the DAISY Award.
