I have known Jamie for almost 2 years and have seen the care and compassion she shows not only patients but also her coworkers. This week was different, though. Jamie and I usually work opposite shifts as she is a day shift charge nurse, but she has recently been working nights to help out staffing on the unit. This particular stretch of shifts was one of the craziest we've had, and Jamie had three particularly challenging patients for different reasons throughout the week. Each time I went into the room to help get these patients settled and help Jamie with tasks, her focus was always on the patient, despite whatever was happening around the room or outside the room. She can build a bond with an anxious patient in 3 minutes; I watched her do it with each of these patients myself. She intuitively knows how to meet these patients where they're at, whether it is because of drug use, anxiety, or whatever else they may be going through, and support them in the ways they need. There is no judgment from her or complaining when she's dealt with a challenging situation. She takes her job seriously, as we all should in this profession, and she sets a standard of excellence that every nurse should strive for. Our job as labor and delivery nurses is not always happy, and sometimes, we still see the worst of situations at the most intimate and vulnerable moment in someone's life. Jamie Tucker shows compassion, grace, and extraordinary skill in every single patient interaction, and it has been an honor to watch her in action with some extremely challenging situations.
