Emily always got to eye level when communicating with my father to hear what he was saying.
My father was so tired of being in the hospital, so when I saw that Emily brightened his day, I just had to let someone know. My father is older and has some trouble hearing and with his voice. Emily always got to eye level when communicating with my father to hear what he was saying. He did not have to strain his voice with her and she always understood what he was saying. She always went out of her way to make sure he was comfortable. I can tell she really gets to know her patients and what their needs are. Emily was always professional and quick to respond. When my father learned she would not be his nurse the next day, you could tell he was disappointed. That is a sign you have a wonderful nurse and she should be recognized in some way for being so special. We have been blessed with wonderful nurses and staff at Methodist. Emily just happens to be an "over the top" wonderful nurse!!
