My husband was admitted to the unit with Meningitis. He did not know who he was or any of his family. He was in a very confused state. He was scared and did not understand what was happening to him. Liz was so compassionate with him. When he was taken to radiology for a procedure Liz went with him and never left his side. She talked to him about his wife and family to keep him calm. Liz helped the family get through a terrible time and was very compassionate with my husband. We are grateful we had someone like her during this time. She is someone our family will hold dear in our hearts.
