Health Care Worker - Kaelen Marie Eglen

Kaelen Marie Eglen is my Very Hard Working granddaughter. She is in her third year, a junior at IUPUC studying nursing. She has worked for the past two years as a CNA Intern on a medical-surgical unit and student nurse. Currently, she has transferred to the Emergency Department as a student nurse and it has been CRAZY/BUSY, but a great learning experience for her. Within nursing school she has to have clinical hours that she completes each semester. Her clinical cohort is located at Schneck as well. She is very THANKFUL for being able to learn under the best nurses, doctors, support staff, RT, PT,, OT and other staff there. She is always saying how blessed (and tired), beyond measure to have such awesome coworkers, who are eager to help, teach and support in all that she does, whether it being clinicals or with her jobs. Kaelen said everyone at Schneck is just like family and that she is always grateful for each and everyone that she has met along the way. This pandemic has been HARD on everyone, but it has given Kaelen the drive to become the nurse that she has always dreamed of becoming! Some days it can be hard, but some days it reminds her why she started! Her fiancee, Dylan Davis fell at his work at the Sheriff Department at the end of summer and broke his foot/ankle. After surgery Dylan is still not back to work so with a money shortage, Kaelen is the sole supporter of the household, finances and their puppies Beau Chief and Charlie, besides her going to school, clinicals, studying and work! I still don't know how she does it ALL! She is so kind and loving to her patients, treats them like family and puts them before herself! This little lady needs to be nominated as she is more than DESERVING! A little ME time sure brightens everyones day! THANK YOU for all you do! YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!!

Her heart for these patients and their families goes WELL above and beyond any Social Worker I have ever seen! And I have experienced this personally with my OWN family!! And she treats those patients and family that she DOESN’T know the same as mine!! That speaks VOLUMES of her!!! She deserves to be nominated because she does not receive the credit due to her!! She deserves to be pampered and recognized for her work even though she’d tell you differently, but that’s her heart!!! I nominate Tiffani Calhoun!!! ❤️
