Helen Wellington Clinical Coach, Intensive Care Unit

For ICU Clinical Coach Helen Wellington, one of the best things about being a nurse is the connection with her patients and their families. “It’s really special when the families of deceased families come back to thank you for what you’ve done for them and their loved ones during such a difficult time,” she said.
