Arlene is a brilliant nurse who is quiet and nice to work with. Even if you have a very busy day in ICU, Arlene makes your day go smooth because she is there to help and teach. When you work with her, you can be confident that you won’t feel lost in the Unit. The patients are very lucky to have Arlene as their nurse.
