I transferred from UTMB to Kindred ICU because I needed continued critical care. All of the staff here have been so helpful, provided excellent care, and done so in a timely manner. I have so many stories of how the staff have gone above and beyond. While in ICU I began to have an allergic reaction to a medication which started causing a severe rash. My nurse noticed it and she immediately took action to stop the medications to prevent more serious reactions. Troy, an ICU nurse, runs a tight ship, if there was every a problem in ICU he was right there to help. His level of experience is up there so he works efficiently and well under difficult situations. The dialysis nurses are very knowledgeable and they have top notch bedside care and manners. The dialysis nurse, Caprice, is very compassionate, makes good conversation, and she listens to my concerns. Another nurse I had is eight months pregnant but that doesn't slow her down, she is a hard worker because she loves her job. The rehab therapy and respiratory therapist have been great. The Luby's food has been pretty good too. It is helpful to have a menu with various food options to chose from.
