Natalie was a very new Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS) when she met a young gentleman who had been diagnosed with metastatic oesophageal cancer. Natalie guided this patient and his partner through all his investigations and cancer treatments showing compassion professionalism empathy and respect at all times. Time sadly became very short for this gentleman and Natalie organized at very short notice a beautiful wedding ceremony here in the rose garden at Torbay hospital before supporting his move to Rowcroft Hospice for end-of-life care. At Rowcroft they were able to have another ceremony for all the family before the gentleman passed away only 3 days later. Natalie was asked to be a witness at the ceremony as a thank you from the patient and his fiancé for all she had done. Natalie is a very welcome addition to our team and we are very proud of the caring CNS she has become.
