Tracey’s skills and knowledge have prevented patients from deteriorating and ensured they have died with dignity.
Tracey stepped up to be the manager of the COVID ward EAU4 back in late summer 2021 having worked through it since the very first COVID patient was admitted to EAU3 March 2020. Since stepping up she has been an absolute rock for the staff members on COVID EAU4 and has been an advocate for our wellbeing. She has fought for safe staffing and implemented changes to improve our ways of working. She managed to give 100% whilst under a huge amount of pressure from higher management with little recognition. It is not just her work to the ward and staff that should be commended but her nursing care and compassion for the patients is second to none. Tracey’s skills and knowledge have prevented patients from deteriorating and ensured they have died with dignity. Special mention to the husband and wife we had on our ward. She provides brilliant holistic care to her patients. We cannot thank her enough for all she has done for us and our patients.
