Spending all day and night here, I could see her peers love and respect Beth and look to her for direction.
Beth is so patient and helped explain what the doctors had told us about my mom and her treatment plan at a time when we were scared. She was able to answer all our questions and put us at ease. She could see how scared and anxious I was.

Today, when the therapy dog came to visit, I happened to walk by Beth and a few other nurses. Beth told me I could benefit from this, and I did. Spending all day and night here, I could see her peers love and respect Beth and look to her for direction. She also took the time to explain the Care Partner Program, as well as any time I asked her for anything, such as water, bath wipes, linens, etc. She had a smile on her face and came right away. Her compassion for my mom and her family, her willingness to answer our questions, put us at ease, and getting to know her has made this difficult time in our lives a bit easier. She is another “Angel on Earth."
