Today a woman named Judy stopped me in the hall and asked if she could tell me a story about one of our nurses. I have Judy’s permission to share this story.

Just a couple of weeks after major surgery, Judy found herself in line at the Salina WalMart. Feeling okay one moment, the next moment found her not feeling at all well.

Carylee Nelson, RN, longtime clinic nurse, just happened to be in line behind Judy and asked if she was okay–to which Judy replied “No”. Carylee helped Judy to a place to sit down, comforted her, and when she was better, Carylee followed her to her car and loaded her purchases into Judy’s car.

It wasn’t until Judy was nearly at the Lindsborg exit when she believed she was being followed. Arriving at her home, Carylee pulled in behind her in the driveway, helped Judy into her home and unloaded her groceries. We think that is a definite “Above and Beyond”. And Judy wants everyone to know just what a difference that made! Thanks, Carylee!
