She is a passionate advocate for her patients, their families, and her fellow staff members. Her willingness to step up and provide guidance, whether in patient care or as a resource for new nurses, speaks volumes about her leadership and teamwork.
Jordan demonstrates exceptional commitment to both her patients and her colleagues. In just a year and a half as a nurse, she has already made a remarkable impact on our unit, demonstrating an unwavering dedication to improving patient care and the overall team dynamic.

This nurse noticed a critical gap in care for our seizure patients and took proactive steps to address it. Recognizing that many staff members struggled to quickly identify a patient's specific seizure patterns and medication needs, she created an innovative Seizure Action Card. This card allows staff to easily understand the seizure action plan and know where to locate the appropriate medications.

Her ability to see a need and take immediate, thoughtful action is just one of the many reasons she stands out. She is a passionate advocate for her patients, their families, and her fellow staff members. Her willingness to step up and provide guidance, whether in patient care or as a resource for new nurses, speaks volumes about her leadership and teamwork.

As a new charge nurse, Jordan has quickly become a go-to person for both advice and support, always ready to lend a helping hand. What truly sets her apart is her consistent, patient-centered approach. She is calm under pressure, compassionate with every patient, and ensures that both staff and patients are supported. Her efforts have not only improved patient care but have also made our unit a better, more collaborative place to work.

Jordan exemplifies the best qualities of a nurse-compassion, leadership, innovation, and teamwork-and is a truly valuable asset to our team.
