What sets Nichole apart is her patience and kindness with everyone. One woman was so touched by the care Nichole provided not just for her husband but also for her. Her husband came to the hospital with broken ribs and dementia which seemed to get worse in the unfamiliar surroundings of a hospital. Nichole was able to take great care of her patient and she took the time to explain to his wife about his care and to educate her about dementia. The wife left to take a break, she felt comfortable and assured that her husband was in great hands. "She did an exceptional job caring for my husband's physical condition but she also helped me immensely with whatever my needs were," wrote the woman. "I'm very grateful for Nichole's exceptional empathy."
Another family member with 30 years in the medical profession said she had a lot of questions when her brother was hospitalized. The woman said she was grateful for her answers and patience and the caring and professional manor Nichole conducts herself. "Many thanks for your kindness and professionalism," the woman wrote.
In her years as a nurse, Nichole has touched many more lives of patients and their family members. She is truly a DAISY Nurse.
