we would like to tell you that your caring, kindness and professionalism whilst you were treating Chris was second to none and very much appreciated. We felt cared for and very informed on Chris's treatment during his 4 visits to hospital.
Always takes time to listen, cares about patients and a trustworthy professional.
Laura is caring and attentive towards her patients, and their relatives, listening to their ailments with compassion and dignity, often going above and beyond for them. Laura is a great colleague to work with, offering support and guidance to all.
I was lucky enough to be mentored by Laura during my time as a student nurse and saw first hand Laura's enthusiasm for delivering safe, effective and compassionate patient care within an Emergency setting. Laura is extremely knowledgeable in the field and was able to discuss diagnosis, treatment and investigations with both colleagues and patients in a way that was tailored to their level of medical understanding. As a mentor Laura was approachable and supportive and ensured that I felt comfortable in asking questions, providing care and assisted me in working to meet my own goals in a timely manner whilst working in a busy emergency setting. I thoroughly enjoyed working alongside Laura and learning from her, she is an asset to emergency medicine!
