She is not just a nurse — she is a fierce advocate, a calming presence, and a true guardian of her patients.
Ellen received two nominations in the past month for her exceptional nursing care:

I’ve had the honor of working alongside her for over a decade, and in that time, she has consistently gone above and beyond in ways that words can hardly capture. She is not just a nurse — she is a fierce advocate, a calming presence, and a true guardian of her patients.
Her instinctive, life-saving decisions have made the difference between life and death on more than one occasion. She treats every patient as if they were family, with dignity, compassion, and deep humanity.
She also lifts those around her, mentoring newer nurses with patience and wisdom. Her unwavering dedication, grace under pressure, and genuine heart make her the kind of nurse every patient hopes for — truly one in a million.

I just want to express my deepest gratitude for the incredible care you gave to my mum, You were so incrediably kind and compassionate, your attention to detail and your skills in the Arabic language, my mum appreciated your patience and how gentle and skilled you were when putting in the needle. She could not stop talking about it. We could not have asked for a better nurse. Thank you for everything you did; you are exceptional at what you do.
