It was obvious that my care and comfort were the most important things, without question.
I was hospitalized for two months due to necrotizing fasciitis and other infections that almost took my life. Olivia was one of the nurses on my floor. She made me feel safe and took extra good care of me in assisting the doctors and saved my life. She always made sure I was clean, took my medications on time, and always took the edge off of the fear of death with her constant positive attitude. It was obvious that my care and comfort were the most important things, without question.
She also put my wife at ease by taking care of her when she spent nights with me. She went above and beyond for my wife’s birthday by making a card for her and having the other nurses sign it. She made me a name sign using markers and put it in my room to brighten my days. On her last night at the hospital (she’s a travel nurse), she asked the charge nurse if I could be on her schedule that night. That made me feel awesome. Olivia is very good at her job, and it shows it’s her calling, not just a job to her. My wife and I love her, and wherever she ends up, the hospital will be glad to have her.
