Anabel goes above and beyond for every one of her patients. I would like to share a specific shift. She had a patient who was on comfort care. The family knew the patient would pass. Anabel asked the family if the patient had a favorite singer to listen to. They brought in a CD. She got the patient a pair of headphones and by the end of the shift, our patient had passed peacefully along with her family with no pain and comfortable as can be. When she is a Charge Nurse, she helps nurses as much as she can and does her roundings with patients, introducing herself to each and every one of them.
