Murfreesboro, TN – Kristi Crass, an RN Perioperative Care nurse at Ascension St. Thomas Rutherford Hospital has been honored by a WGNS’ listener. “I was a patient at Ascension St. Thomas Rutherford and set for early surgery. I am writing to tell you what a great job my prep-op nurse did on this day. Kristi explained what was going to happen, and made me comfortable and relaxed. She was extremely knowledgeable and kept me updated. Kristi even came back to check on me after her shift ended. Her care and compassion for patients can not be overstated! She’s everything I would want my healthcare team to be.”
