My father came to the hospital for an angiogram.  Alex made this short hospital stay as seamless and stress-free as my family has ever experienced.  Alex explained everything that he did in great detail, that was easy to understand.  He also always kept us up-to-date regarding the plan of care. This attention to detail truly displayed the compassion and dedication that Alex has about this profession and for the care and well-being of his patients and their family members.   Alex was also very personable and had a very calm manner about himself.  We were also able to observe Alex helping out his fellow coworkers.  This initiative illustrated his drive to be a collaborative team member.  My family and I truly believe that Alex is the type of nurse that deserves The DAISY Award.
