Annie Small, RN, BSN, Charge Nurse, Medical/Surgical Unit
I oversee the Medical/Surgical Department on the night shift, helping to
facilitate the workflow between nurses and communicating with doctors
and patients. I try to put myself in my patients’ shoes. They might
be having the worst day of their life, so I try to approach them with
compassion and humility and make them feel safe. And I always try to do
it with a smile. I love seeing my patients succeed. Whether its small
little improvements each day, or the bigger success of seeing them go
home. I just want to see them feeling better. I guess I just love a happy
ending. That’s why most of us are in nursing.
