The word "no" does not exist in her vocabulary when it comes to helping someone.
Rosanne is the most hardworking and helpful nurse/person I have ever met. I met her on the first day of my job working as a new RN in 2016 and her compassion for patients and dedication to teamwork have not faded away one bit.
The word "no" does not exist in her vocabulary when it comes to helping someone.
She is extraordinary in the care she provides for patients and always goes the extra mile to ensure coworkers and others around her are doing well; in challenging situations she does not give up, nor pass the burden on to someone else.
There are way too many examples to name, but here is one:
A homeless patient was being discharged and the patient's wheelchair was nonfunctional. I was struggling to fix the wheel of the wheelchair in the patient's room.
We had run out of other options to provide him with a new one, and without knowing any of this or thinking twice, she walked by the room and started to help me.
Instead of saying, "Oh, just get him a new one," or walking past and trying to delegate someone else to help, she really pulled through and helped fix the wheelchair with tools she found in the room and her hard work, skills, and sweat.
It's the little things she does to help prevent bigger problems and knowing and working with Rosanne is the biggest blessing.
