Dawn was outstanding in caring for my little one, my husband, and myself. She always made sure that our wishes were being followed to the best of her abilities from our preferred feeding methods to us wanting to use a pacifier. We were on the unit for 2.5 days and kept getting bad news. When Dawn came in that night she could see we were visibly frustrated and asked what she could do to help. We explained our frustrations and Dawn stepped up to the plate and made sure all our questions were answered regarding our daughter's condition. She went above and beyond her call of duty to make sure that the three of us got the best care while she was on staff both that night and the night after. She was a blessing during our stay and we couldn't have asked for a better nurse.
