Both the student nurse and the attending APRN, Kirstin Nguyen, were fantastic. With an infected ear and a plugged auditory canal, things can be so sensitive. The irrigation water was the perfect temperature. The pressure used to clear was surprisingly comforting. Although the University of Utah is a teaching medical center, the quality of the student was such that it was hard to tell he was not a veteran of many years.
Kirstin Nguyen made a smooth transition to verify a great job and proceeded to diagnose and prescribe a treatment to resolve the infection. The care was superb, and recovery is progressing.
