Today we take a moment to appreciate the heartbeats behind the healing. 💙 Jean Barlow, RN is a nurse who inspires you with her dedication and compassion. #nurseappreciation #nursesweekMeet Kathy "Jean" Barlow, an RN in our ACU department at Harrington Hospital. "From the time I was a small child, I had heard stories of missionaries in Africa and of the great need for health care in faraway places. Although I didn't plan to ever go to Africa, I did decide that I would like to have a career helping to improve people's lives. Thus, I chose nursing as my career.Teaching patients/families/significant others is very enjoyable for me, especially when I can see those light bulb moments!There have been a lot of memorable experiences. When I overcome fears or challenges, I find those experiences energize me. I have two examples. The first is that I never thought I would go to Africa as a nurse, yet I went to Zimbabwe for a year and a half, finding it an incredible opportunity for learning. Secondly, I always stayed away from the Emergency Room as it seemed like a scary place. I was asked to fill in for an injured nurse in the ER for a brief period only to discover a great love for emergency nursing (10 years worth)!I love working at UMass Memorial Harrington because of the sense of community - among employees and among patients.If not at work then I am usually interacting with children, whether those in my church Kids' Club or my two grandchildren."You're such a wonderful caregiver and person, Jean. Your hard work and dedication does not go unnoticed! #MyUMassMemorialMark #NursesWeek

When I was told I had breast cancer, I decided to stay close to home. I had the most terrific surgeon Dr. Thomas Johnson. He was so kind and compassionate. He told me what the surgery would entail, and everything well. I am not looking back to what was, but ahead thanks to Dr. Johnson.

“For the first time in three years, I feel no pain,” Margaret says. “Dr. Oh really helped me to feel better. He didn’t make me feel bad about my ongoing pain. And all of the nurses were so kind as well – they even wheeled me from [the orthopedic surgery office] over to the hospital [to receive the injection] and back to my car.”

I'm a patient of Harrington Hospital's Orthopedic Surgery office. Dr. Samantha Chase [orthopedic surgeon] has been such an asset to me. She has the perfect balance of humanity, concern, bedside manner, and she is an amazing doctor.

Kathy-Jean in outpatient surgery is an amazing nurse, I feel very blessed to have her caring for me each time I have to have a procedure or surgery. Demarius on the third floor outpatient unit was awesome as well - so caring, and can hit your vein in one shot! I would pick both of them to care for me every time I needed medical care if I could!

I went to the ER on 6/12 for severe abdominal pain. I ended up having an appendectomy performed by Dr Rose. He assured me everything would be fine and you could tell how much he cares about his patients. He was so nice and empathetic and put me at ease! Thank you so much Dr Rose!!!

Our 12 year old son was recently in the ER at Harrington Hospital, Southbridge. Unfortunately, he was there for a total of 9 very long days. The entire nursing staff was wonderful with him, but there was one nurse in particular that really made his stay a lot easier! Kamby really took great care of him!

I wish I could paint a clear picture as to the extreme difference between UMass and Harrington Urgent Care! I am completely impressed with Harrington.

It seemed like within 5 seconds, there was a nurse standing next to me checking him out and getting him right in to be taken care of.
