Miss Emily Petersen 2017-02-13 Person 5 5 0

My mother (87 years old) came in for observation (following a fall and a resulting bleed on the brain). While in Emily's care my mother suffered a series of seizures - I arrived for visiting during one of these bouts of seizures. Emily held my mother's hand and throughout the various episodes and spoke to her reinsuring her and helping to keep her calm at a time that must have been terrifying for her as it was for me as an onlooker. Emily is a young woman that displays care and professionalism beyond her years. Other nurses seem to ask her for her advice a good many times for whatever reason so they at least acknowledge her skills. I can't think of anything that could be improved barring she be given every opportunity to develop her career as she appears to be one of the true dedicated, 'born to nurse', individuals and she is a great asset to the NHS so should be encouraged to develop to keep her interest and commitment.
