accounts Cindy truly exemplifies the characteristics set out by the PHIL Award.
Cindy was nominated for her dedication and commitment to her patients and
their families; her professional demeanor, caring compassion and patience.
From one of her nominations it states that she was observed taking out time to
speak to a family of four that came in through the emergency room for carbon
monoxide poisoning. She carefully spoke to each family member, calling on
them by name and explaining the details of the poisoning, the plan of care, and
discussing their blood levels. The RN said that she treated them as if they
were her only patients.

receive new clothing and a hot meal.

extra mile of service and she makes sure the patients know how to use their
(MDI and Spirometry) equipment in the home setting. The RN, Eileen Clark
