We are forever grateful for Amber- she is a rock star.
“Amber does an outstanding job coordinating all of my child's appointments, chemo inpatient, Denver, scans, and even his prosthetic appointment. She works closely with Children’s Hospital Aurora and his orthopedic surgeon to coordinate all he needs for treatment. She has helped my husband and me learn how to administer shots at home. She has spent countless hours dealing with insurance problems. She has stayed on top of all his needs for the last 8 months flawlessly. We are forever grateful for Amber- she is a rock star.”
This note and recommendation initiated from the patient and family demonstrates Amber’s exceptional family-centered care. The adolescent patient was always included in every care decision made; Amber made sure of that. She rounds frequently with the patient and families while the patient was admitted. She ensured all care team members were on the same page. The amazing thing is that she does this will all of her panel of patients. She engages the family with the patient at the center of all things.
