Emily is the nurse who spends quality time with her patients, making them feel like they are the only one when in reality, they are one of six or seven. As mom remained hospitalized, she became critical and was moved to the ICU. Emily made a point to come over to the ICU to visit with mom and us. She was so kind and compassionate and genuinely caring as demonstrated in her words, her touch and her prayers. Mom was eventually moved to hospice care and Emily made a visit there, too. We were so lucky to have her as mom's nurse in the last days of her life on Earth. MercyOne is so blessed to have Emily.
