She didn't just focus on the medical care, but she treated him with empathy and respect, which meant so much to us.
During a recent visit to the Emergency Room with my son, who is on the autism spectrum, we were fortunate to be cared for by a truly exceptional nurse. From the moment LaShonda entered the room, her patience, kindness, and calm presence stood out. She explained every step of the process in a way my son could understand, which helped ease his anxiety and made him feel safe. She didn't just focus on the medical care, but she treated him with empathy and respect, which meant so much to us. As a parent, watching her connect with my child in such a caring, thoughtful way brought me peace in a stressful situation. Her compassion and professionalism made a difficult visit more manageable for both of us. I am incredibly grateful for the care she provided. She made a lasting difference for our family.
