DAYVILLE — Sister Noble, Ansamma George, RN, gained the distinction of Westview Health Care Center’s Employee of the Month for June 2024. Sister Noble is one of the Nursing Supervisors at Westview; most often working during the third shift. She joined in 2021. She is also a practicing nun of St. James’ Church in Danielson.
She credits her passion for nursing care to an experience she had while in India. When she was taking care of a patient there as she performed volunteering work, the patient presented with a wound that was becoming badly infected. She started praying for the patient’s recovery, and lo and behold, the wound began to heal. Sister Noble acknowledged the power of prayerful care, and then decided that she could have even further impact by combining her faith with knowledge as a Registered Nurse. She began her education and ultimately earned her degree in nursing from St. John’s Medical College Hospital in Bangalore, India.
During her off time, Sister Noble enjoys gardening, cooking, and baking as a strong passion. Sister Noble likes to listen to music—especially with bedridden patients. She will go in and listen to music with them, and hold their hands as a means of offering additional compassion to the medical aid she provides. She has a sibling, Sister Brigit Pulickudiyil, and she enjoys their time together during pastimes and prayers.
Her heart is full of love for the patients whose care is entrusted to her. “Sometimes the patients are feeling down, and I will talk to them to help them feel more comfortable. Recently I had a patient and the first night she was with us she was very unsure of her condition and prognosis. I told her that in the early stages of her treatment, things may go up and down but you will feel better tomorrow. She later told me that our conversation on her first night here made her commit to her own full recovery and she was very thankful.” She went on further about her commitment to helping others
Westview Administrator and Executive Vice President David T. Panteleakos said: “We are blessed to have Sister Noble, Ansamma George, RN, as a member of our community here at Westview. She has made a profoundly positive impression on patients, residents, and her fellow colleagues in this community of care. I am proud to see her dedication to professional medical care along with her faithful devotion to bedside manner. ”
