Valerie Larson Franks RN is the nurse I would choose to see my family members if/when they would need a Home Care Nurse. She provides excellent care, her documentation should be a model for nurses learning how to become effective Home Care Nurses. Her care of and for her patients is obvious as she goes the extra mile to obtain the appropriate resources, equipment, and supplies that suit their unique situation. She connects all the dots, identifying and intervening on developing situations before they reach the crisis point of return to the hospital. She is a strong advocate for her patients and articulates her case in an intelligent, logical, and practical manner. Amazingly, she manages to consistently use the correct form, completes it correctly, and submits it on time. This saves the workers in the office significant time and trouble. She is a great case manager, knows her patients and their families well, plans ahead, achieves positive outcomes. She manages her time well, which is crucial to longevity in the very challenging business of being a field clinician in home care.
