About Emma

I have been working as a registered nurse at Shirley Ryan Ability Lab for over a year now. It is my first position since graduating with my Masters in Science of Nursing from DePaul University. My Bachelors degree is also from DePaul University, in Health Sciences. In my opinion caring for anyone takes close attention to detail, a watchful eye, diligence, and knowledge to ensure all standards of practice are up to par. The ability to foster hope in patient's, providing heart-felt compassionate and safe care, while forming therapeutic relationships with all age groups are all which I pride myself in.

I knew from a young age that I always wanted to help people so with that in mind after high School I pursued what I knew I would be good at helping senior citizens through the years I have learned a lot and also through experience with working with agencies where most of the time they just throw you in and expect you to learn everything which was fine with me 18 years of experience later and I've had no complaints.
