I can rely on Emily even on her days off, to call me and help me solve any problem I may have.
I have worked with Emily as a colleague for almost 6 years as a Nurse Practitioner on Seidman 4. She has transitioned through several leadership roles during her time at Seidman and excelled at each of them. From the beginning of my career as a new NP and new to Seidman, she was always supportive and welcoming. She was a bedside nurse that I identified immediately as possessing visible leadership skills. Her peers respect her and look to her for personal and professional guidance daily. She shows a maturity beyond her years of experience or age. She was then promoted to Assistant Manager where she shined as a nurse and patient advocate and then transitioned into the role of Inpatient Nursing Supervisor. Not only do other hold her to high regard, but she also holds herself to high standards. She is constantly educating herself both formally and informally. She obtained her master’s degree in Nursing Leadership and Management.

The only problem to nominating someone like her, is that there are too many great examples of her compassion, strong work ethic, and dedication to her patients that it is hard to choose just one. Instead, I would like to highlight the behavior she displays each and every day that is above and beyond her job description and what makes her an exceptional nurse and colleague. She can be seen and heard from during any code situation not just on Seidman 4 but any of the Seidman floors. Emily is an expert clinician and offers valuable suggestions to the medical teams during critical situations. She works hard to foster a mutually respectful and collaborative relationship between the nursing staff and the medical teams. She is also an expert in her technical skills and is called to all parts of the hospital to help with IV placement, medication drips, chemotherapy administration or central line removals for example. She has been a nurse at Seidman since 2012 and has a firm grasp on how to utilize her resources which is also what makes her such a valuable resource to her peers.

I can also speak personally about the support Emily offers me daily. I can rely on her even on her days off, to call me and help me solve any problem I may have. She helps me find nursing or HR policies, she triages patients with me and helps creates differentials. She is also the first person to offer emotional support whenever needed. She functions at the absolute peak of her license and her patients and colleagues are better because of it. She is not just technically skilled however, she has a natural ability to display patience and compassion that makes her the perfect oncology nurse. Her bedside manner is unparalleled. She is often recognized verbally by her peers and by patients for her exemplary work and compassion. Thank you for letting me shine a bright light on one of our Seidman stars.
