My elderly mother was at KDMC in the care of nurse Katelyn. Mom has a broken femur. Katelyn has taken great care of Mom. She took responsibility for making sure our needs were attended to while at KDMC. She embodies the traits of care, compassion, and empathy. She told us how much she loves her job. Katelyn was extremely patient with my mom as she was having difficulty swallowing her medication. She listened to other team members' concerns and got the job done. She communicated each step of our visit and what would take place next. The hospital is blessed to have Katelyn.
