When my mother was transferred to 2300, Tess was the epitome of a caring, compassionate, and professional nurse. She took her time with patients and families, always keeping me and others informed on all aspects of care. It was the way that Tess provided nursing care to my mom that took away my feelings of worry and stress. Her caring nature soothed both of us, I knew that my mom was in caring hands and my worries fell away. It's nurses like Tess that give Franciscan Health OF and the nursing profession an awesome reputation. I am honored to have had her care for my loved one. I always knew the plan of care and any changes. I will never forget the manner of care rendered; she has the best bedside manner!
