As a new nurse at a small hospital in Colorado in the late 70s, when a patient died it was the nurses responsibility to take care of the deceased, contact the coroner and take care of the paperwork required. Dave Schoenfeld helped walk me through that difficult process showing care and dignity. I was always grateful for his assistance teaching me and giving me the confidence to handel such a difficult situation.
