Congratulations to Susie Juelsgaard, Surgery and Pain Clinic Nurse, for being the recipient of the Service Excellence Star Award!

Her nominations read:
“Susie is the best nurse I have ever had the pleasure of working with. She is extremely smart and always thinks of everything. She is so compassionate about her job. She makes her patient feel at ease. She truly listens to them and cares so deeply for them. I have been a patient here a few times and Susie was my nurse. She makes me feel so comfortable just with her words. I have never met a more compassionate nurse then Susie. I think all of her patients would agree. She deserves this!” and “Any one that knows Susie knows she is a sweetheart. She is willing to offer support, assistance or a listing ear to anyone who is struggling. She goes above and beyond being a nurse. She listens attentively to some one that needs to talk, whether it be a patient, coworker for friend. Susie offers words of encouragement and support. She is a gentle and calm person that anyone feels comfort in.”

Thank you for all you do at RHSHC!!
