During my 91-year-old grandfather’s nearly two-week stay in the CCU, our family experienced a whirlwind of emotions. Each day brought new and often frightening changes in his condition. It was an incredibly difficult and unfamiliar time for us, filled with uncertainty and helplessness.

Throughout this challenging period, Georgi was a constant source of comfort, strength, and compassion. She approached every shift with not only a warm smile for my grandfather but for our entire family. Her patience was extraordinary. She took the time to explain and re-explain complex medical information, ensuring we felt informed and reassured every step of the way. Despite the demands of caring for multiple patients, Georgi made my grandfather’s comfort and well-being a clear priority.

Her clinical knowledge and skill were evident, but what truly stood out was her unwavering dedication and humanity. In a time when we felt lost, Georgi became someone my entire family and I could lean on. She went above and beyond in every sense, and while nothing could fully capture the depth of our gratitude, we hope these words express just how deeply she impacted our lives.

Georgi exemplifies the very best of nursing.
