I came into the hospital feeling pretty hopeless and down. Due to me having Crohn's Disease, my path has been quite difficult. I have stayed in the hospital three times in the last year. I was in Observation for three days and have never met a more caring, outgoing, patient-loving, and most importantly, non-judgmental nurse.
Aimee is outstanding. When I was feeling down or uncomfortable, she did anything she could to make it okay. She did this both comfortably and professionally. I wish I could have had her every day. Her honesty, passion, and her drive really helped me get through a very medically challenging stay.
Aimee was my voice when the doctors on day shift did not have the time or their judgments were clouded as they took on more patients. She was practically trying to be in four places at once, but never rushed and I felt like I could trust her and also talk to her openly and honestly.
Aimee made me feel supported, and she's the type of nurse who makes the patient's visit, no matter how difficult, a little easier. Thank you again, Aimee, for a good ending to my stay here!

Aimee was great. She told me a remedy for my constipation that is a miracle: prune juice with butter, heated up. Wonderful job!Very knowledgeable. Very friendly.

Aimee has taken exceptional care of me. As well as seeing to my medical needs, her cheery disposition has put me in better spirits as we all know being in the hospital is not fun and can be lonely. Aimee's attitude and bedside manner has made my stay tolerable. The whole nursing staff on the Observation Unit is so dedicated and hardworking.
