Beth was my RN for several days. This is a lovely dedicated happy nurse who puts the safety and care of her patients in every aspect of giving superior patient care. At home I take 20 units of Lantus each night. Since being admitted they upped it to 30 units because of the steroids. When it was time for my Lantus one day it said 40 units. I never take 40 units so I said that was a mistake. Beth put the Lantus in the bag and said she would check with the pharmacy and the physician to be sure not to make a mistake. I was grateful that she checked. I was in complete kidney failure in November because I was taking a lot of diuretics and potassium twice a day. I spent 9 days in ICU and couldn't even get up to use the restroom. Beth is a happy person who clearly loves her job and her patients even more. She is very smart and giving, and goes above and beyond in giving superior care. She is friendly, warm and you know you are being taken care of by a woman who takes pride in her job. She is such an asset to GSAM. She loves it and it shows. I'm so thankful to have had Beth as my nurse.
