July 2023 Honoree
Kaitlin Smith, RN
My mother and I were traveling for vacation from Georgia. She had an episode of intractable pain that delayed our return home. By the time we arrived in the ED I had been attempting to manage her pain in a hotel room for six days, and not slept more than 2 hours at a time during that time. Kaitlin was our ED nurse. She was kind, gracious, and professional. Kaitlin listening to my mother, heard my distress as the sole provider a thousand miles away from home. Kaitlin advocated for her patient and offered me support as well. I am grateful for her holistic care and gentle spirit. Kaitlin made a true difference in our lives. We find it hard to fully express our gratitude to Kaitlin and Methodist Hospital!
Thank you, Kaitlin, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
