Life Under The Willow Tree

E131: Willow Valley’s Caring Nursing Assistants

Episode Summary

Host: Candace O’Donnell Guest: Ronald James Scholl, Certified Nursing Assistant Description: R.J., known on the floor at Lakeside, gives exceptional care. Not only is he strong, skilled, and well-trained, but most importantly, he is CARING. R.J. is just one of the many wonderful nursing assistants throughout the WV Health Care system. Growing old is not easy, and when the body and mind begin to break down, nursing skill is needed, but more than anything, a caring, empathetic nurse at every level of care is what matters most to the patient and their families. R. J. is an example of just that. Candace knows firsthand as she watches R.J. work with her husband, who has had a debilitating stroke.
