The isolation unit at UNC Health Nash has become an essential part of the hospital’s operations, established to care for patients battling various infectious diseases. It can be difficult for patients admitted to the unit, with some even facing frightening, life-threatening circumstances. But for staff members like Tasha Clark, UNC Nash Nursing Assistant, it is their mission to connect with patients, address their needs and ensure they receive the physical and emotional care they need throughout their journey. "Most of the unit team members have been there from the start because they're able to rise to the unique occasion," said Lee Thompson, Isolation Assistant Nurse Manager. "The cohesiveness of the personnel is natural and incredible. Their approach to care is purposeful and focused. Tasha exudes this culture by taking the time to get to know her patients, to make them feel seen, heard and supported. That's someone we want on the team."
