Beth did an outstanding job supporting a mother who was grieving due to the loss of her son. Beth walked up and down the rows of the parking lot to help the mother find her car. After finding the car, the mother realized that she needed to gather her son's belongings from inside the hospital. Beth offered to do this for her and came back inside, gathered his belongings, and took them out the mother. Beth also brought out the paperwork that needed to be signed so that the mother did not have to come back in. Despite the fact that this was a busy and hectic day, Beth spent time helping this family member in need to minimize the stress and burden during this difficult time. The son was not one of Beth's patients, but when Beth notices someone in need, she goes above and beyond to help. She is an Extraordinary Nurse!
