Nikki has compassion beyond measure! Nikki went above and beyond her nursing duties to help me get well. Just one example of her dedication is, calling for help to start a new heparin lock site. Nikki tried twice then called for help instead of putting me through unnecessary pain.
Also, I had a headache due to lack of caffeine because of diet restrictions. Medicine didn't help my headache. When I was allowed coffee, the hospital coffee didn't taste well. I still had this annoying headache. Nikki, without saying a word, bought me a coffee from the coffee shop downstairs. A few minutes later my headache was gone. I am grateful and thankful for nurses like Nikki.
During this difficult and trying time in our world, Nikki makes all worries seem like a simple fix. Nikki was always smiling behind her mask. She always offered a cheerful and happy attitude. Its nurses like Nikki that make being ill a little easier to bear the road to recovery. I am thankful and blessed.
