I had the very comforting experience of having Carrie Ann as my nurse the last few days in the hospital. (I had a 10 day stay). I was certainly ready to go home by the time Carrie Ann was assigned to my care. She was beyond compassionate regarding my illness and struggles. She comforted me when I really needed it! My husband wasn’t able to spend a lot of time with me in the hospital because we still have a teenager at home. Carrie Ann treated me like I was a family member. When I was crying, her eyes would well up, knowing what I was going through. She really listened to me!! You can teach people to become RNs, but the compassion she had for me was real and comes from her heart; that’s what is so amazing about her!! She made my stay at the hospital a positive experience.
