DAISY PRESENTATION WINNER -- NICOLE HULL RN, 5 West, Boardman

During my recovery from surgery, this nurse consistently emeplified all the criteria of deserving of the DAISY award.
She made me feel safe and normal through a traumatic experience for me. She reassured me that each day would be a better day and a new beginning. If she were my nurse through the first procedure over a year ago, I wouldn’t have had the fears that I had this time around. But she was gentle with me and my wife and she aided me in my recovery.
She answered all my questions and removed all doubts about my procedure and gave me back some dignity and self respect.
Having kidney stones removed was not my most pleasant experience but through her gently ways and smile she made it new, educational, and rewarding for me.
