My husband was transferred here after he had a heart attack and had to have an emergency stent put in. He was in a room on the 5th floor. His nurse Renee was amazing with him and helpful to me as well. She was always asking if he needed anything and making sure we were doing well. When our grandchildren came to visit, she came in to take his vitals, the children were very interested in what she was doing. Renee took the time to let them listen to his heart and stomach. She was patient and acted as if she had all the time in the world and didn't have anything else to do. Later when she came back our youngest was laying on the bed pretending to cough and saying "I sick" so Renee took the time to pretend to take her vitals. When she was done, she asked if she was ok and our grandchild said, "I'm all better". Renee made my husband's stay easier with her smile and easy manner that helped my husband relax and me and our family comfortable as we waited for my husband to get better.
