Thank You Ariel for putting a smile on my face when I was in a lot of pain

Arial, a nurse at Bronson LakeView Hospital smiles for the camera as she receives the DAISY Award for Extraordinary nurses.

Ariel gave me the best care in the Bronson LakeView Hospital Emergency Department! Every time she came into my room to check on me, I forgot how much pain I was in. Ariel got to know me and I got to know her. She was cracking jokes and asking me about my recent vacation. When Ariel had heard that I needed more painkillers, she went straight to the doctor to ask for more for me! Another nurse had come in and was telling me that she'd write a note for the doctor, but Ariel was waking through the door with the medicine ready to go. I felt very comfortable with her and I was able to ask her any questions I needed to. Ariel inspired me to be a light in other's lives like she was in mine, and probably in others! I could tell she loves her job and most of all helping people. I am so incredibly grateful Ariel was there during my 5-hour ER visit!
