About: Geraldton Hospital / Day Surgery

(as a service user),

Recently I was a patient in Day Surgery  at Geraldton Regional Hospital  .   I felt the young nurse who was responsible for my admission was amazing.  She introduced herself as Kaitlin.     Confidently attending to the pages of observations and information gathering, from what I saw.   Engaging in conversation with her I learned she was a qualified EN and now in the final weeks of her RN placements.   I felt she displayed a mature approach to me,  her patient.     And while waiting for my surgery I was able to watch her engage with her peers.      And to my surprise, I understand she plans on returning to her hometown to serve her community.    Thank you Kaitlin,   I wish to every success in your future of nursing.     A true Florence Nightingale in my opinion.

It was very pleasing to read your story and appreciate what a positive impact Kaitlin had during your admission.
