My husband and I had our 12-year-old son in the ER with severe abdominal pain. My son was very sick and scared. Kelly Meddaugh took care of him. What I mean is she explained and talked to my husband and me, but she talked, explained, and focused on our son. This was the first time he'd ever been in the ER/Hospital, and he was very scared. Kelly was kind, compassionate, and caring, and he answered any questions we had. Though very young, Kelly treated our son like a person/patient who asked questions, not a child. She directed the conversation to him. She explained everything to him before it was done. He felt so comfortable with her that she even got him to smile before he left. He was so relaxed, and he was feeling better by the time we left. He asked Kelly to take a picture with him. He showed all his sisters and even grandparents the great nurse he had. My husband, son, and I feel Kelly is a wonderful nurse who must be acknowledged for her exceptional care. She was very professional and overall a great nurse. Thank you from all of us, especially our son. He really related to her well, and that made his experience less scary.
