Kristin Lewicki, RN, BSN
Kristin Lewicki, RN, BSN, is a staff nurse at The Mount Sinai Hospital and recently received a letter of praise from a grateful patient’s family member:
“I would like you to know of the above-and-beyond, excellent care that my husband has received from Ms. Lewicki. He is very ill, and his case is complicated. Throughout this and previous stays, he has had the great good fortune to be under the care of Nurse Lewicki for a majority of the time. I can say with complete honesty that never, in any other hospital, has he ever had such compassionate and professional and thorough treatment as hers. She cares for his physical and medical needs seamlessly, while also sensitive to the human being as an individual. I know when he is cared for by her, he is in the safest, most capable hands. Ms. Lewicki is a gem, and I’m so thankful your hospital put her in our path to be a bright light in a long, rough journey for my husband and our family.”
Destiny R. Campbell, MSN, RN, Interim Nurse Manager Oncology, echoes these words. “Kristin has a heart of gold and goes above and beyond to ensure her patients feel welcomed, safe, and heard.”
Kristin is humble when responding to these words of praise. “I’m beyond grateful to be recognized and honored by such a prestigious medical health system,” she says. “When you work with the best, you show up and bring your best! I love being a nurse and offer my heart and soul to every patient and peer. My job brings many challenges—physically, mentally, and emotionally—but the rewards of human connection are beyond everlasting. My patients have made being a nurse a gift that I can share.”
