” Made with love 4 U by Rachel Whitworth.”
This message was sewn into a pair of scrubs and left on the doorstep of Melbourne registered nurse Emma Koster.
They had actually shown up simply at the right time. Emma had simply withstood a string of shifts as head of the coronavirus screening group at Monash Hospital, where tensions and stress and anxiety were high for clients, visitors and staff.
However who was Rachel Whitworth? And would Emma ever have the opportunity to state thank you?
” It’s a hard job,” Emma stated of her work evaluating for coronavirus.
” We have to inform individuals they can’t see their liked ones, individuals have to line up for ages simply to get in [during] checking out hours, and we even have to tell people they can’t attend their baby’s ultrasound.
” We hear whatever however we are often abused. My last shift I was abused so terribly that I had to resist the tears.
” We greet everyone with a smile, we show empathy, understanding and generosity, and it’s still not enough and the abuse flows.”
