Crystal was very compassionate and empathetic with my Mom who had a hip replacement. Her tone, gestures, and body language demonstrated that she cares and is genuine. She is well rounded, professional and one can tell she loves her career. Crystal took the time to educate us about why she was doing something. My Mom was hesitant to take pain medication but Crystal was able to communicate in detail the benefits of taking them during the first 24-48 hours post op and Mom listened to her. The result was Mom wasn't in severe pain and could do the things that she needed to do to speed her recovery.

Thank you Crystal, for taking the time to communicate with her. Of all of the nurses Mom had during her hospitalization, Crystal was the one that stood out. She had great follow up, her response times were quick, and she made a lasting impression. Crystal is an asset to this hospital and should be recognized for her impactful actions, people skills, extraordinary performance and customer excellence.
