Christina was kind and took the time to answer all of my questions as best she could…or refer me to the expertise of the cardiologist when he comes in. She took the time to listen to my concerns about how my sleep apnea might be a problem and offered me oxygen, which actually helped me sleep. In particular, I found it very helpful how Christina took the time to listen to my concerns about the cardiac catheterization and to carefully explain to me regarding the various procedures that were being done to monitor my blood pressure, heart rate, drawing blood, etc…things that may seem basic to you, but which are new and slightly intimidating to me. Christina never made me feel that my questions were stupid, or that I was imposing on her time. Great Nurse!
