Sarah was patient and empathetic during my hospital stay.
I was still feeling foggy the next day. Agency nurse Sarah took over and made sure I was comfortable. She changed the oxygen tubing in my nose and made my breathing more comfortable. I could really feel the difference it made. BIG BIG DIFFERENCE!! Immediately, I knew that Sarah was medically competent to take care of me. Next, Sarah spent an endless amount of time answering my questions and clarifying my confusion about everything. She was really patient with me and all my questions. I felt she really understood that not only was I a COVID patient in her care, but I was also a chemo patient. One of the side effects of my chemotherapy meds is memory loss. Sarah treated me as a unique individual while recognizing my medical history. Sarah was patient and empathetic during my hospital stay. I would talk her ear off almost her entire shift and she not once made me feel like I was an inconvenience. She lessened my fears again and again. Sarah never once made me feel like a burden. She is a kind soul. This entire stay was a perfect storm but I am so glad to have a caring, nurturing RN to care for me.
