CRBH ICU Nurses Show Amazing Compassion for Patient

Submitted by fmwaddell on

CRBH ICU Nurses Kelly Schulke, RN and Brian Jenkins, RN recently showed an amazing amount of compassion for one of our patients.  We had an ICU patient that endured an extended stay and began having anxiety from having to stay in a hospital room for a great length of time.  On one occasion, Brian Jenkins, RN took the patient to our 3rd floor chapel at CRBH to allow the patient to enjoy the sunset over Lexington and this proved to be very calming for the patient (amazing view from our chapel). On another occasion, Kelly Schulke, RN took this patient outside for a brief amount of time so that he could obtain some fresh air, could relax, and could have a normal conversation and this also proved to be very calming and helpful for the patient.  Both agreed that these actions made a huge positive difference for this patient.  This is outstanding (thinking outside of the box and doing what you would want done for you) care by these two nurses, and it's just one example of the level of care that our nurses provide throughout our facility.  Outstanding job and this is first-class care much deserving of recognition.  Bravo!
