From the moment Regina stepped into my room you knew she was exceptional. Her concerns were genuine. She was on top of things. She stayed on top of my daily meds, daily x rays and just talking to me like a person. I was really down one day-had not had a good day. I looked up and here she came with a cup of coffee. I needed that- I am terminally ill but she treated me as I am here and not gone yet. (Other nurses read my chart came in and made me ask for everything. It was like they read and thought he's going anyway. I will spend my day on the other 3 or 4 patients I have).

Regina was constantly buzzing in to ask "need anything, anything at all? Ok, I'm a buzz away". She was extremely kind to my wife. One night I was down. When she came in she knew somehow and asked if some ice cream would help, I said "sure would". She has what I call "Old School values" and is so passionate about her job. That is a real nurse!

Please let her know I so appreciate all she did for both of us.
