She quickly recognized a change in his condition and promptly informed us, giving our family the precious opportunity to gather by his side.
Cadie was the nurse caring for my father on the night he passed, and her compassionate and professional presence made an incredibly difficult time a little more manageable for our family. She quickly recognized a change in his condition and promptly informed us, giving our family the precious opportunity to gather by his side. Her exceptional nursing judgment allowed us to be there with him as he passed. Throughout this time, Cadie ensured our family felt supported, taking the time to explain the progression and what to expect. She provided comfort not only to us but also to my father, ensuring he was pain-free and as comfortable as possible. Cadie advocated for him by discussing alternative medication options with the provider to ensure his comfort in his final moments. She dedicated significant time to both our family and my father, never making us feel like a burden or rushed.
After he passed, Cadie guided us through the immediate steps the family needed to take and gave us the time we needed before contacting the funeral home. We could not have asked for a more caring, attentive nurse to help us through this end-of-life journey, and we truly wish we could have had her throughout the entire duration of his hospitalization.
