My 10-year-old son was seen in the ER due to severe pain and was transferred via helicopter to the children’s hospital in Nashville. Prior, Bailee was his ER nurse. She was amazing at dealing with a pediatric patient. He has never experienced anything like this and has a sensory processing disorder and anxiety. She was absolutely amazing. She remained calm and had a lot of patience during our visit. She never seemed flustered or like she had anything to do except be there with us (even though I know she was busy that day). She sat down to be at his level, spoke very calmly with him, and explained things. He needed an IV and was very anxious about this. She took time to explain what it was and even showed him the IV catheter. She even offered to get an IV with him. She definitely built a rapport in the short time he was her patient. She is an amazing nurse, and I am so thankful for her calming presence during such a stressful time.
