When my family member was admitted after a car accident, I was very anxious. He had multiple brain injuries and surgeries and was very unstable. Alyssa walked in and stepped up immediately. She got the report and started thinking critically right away.

She questioned the providers and collaborated with them every step of the way. Once Alyssa took over, Mark became less swollen, more alert, and seemed more comfortable. Her calmness helped to put me at ease. She was so kind and positive when educating the rest of the family.

I was most impressed when she rounded up with the doctors and advocated for him. Alyssa did an amazing job of keeping our family up to date on his condition. She told us the entire story and what to expect regarding his future care. She is an amazing nurse!
