“When we came to 5E, Carl was our nurse and we really liked him a lot. He was super nice, attentive and encouraging. He encouraged my partner to move and to sit up in the chair. He encouraged him go the bathroom and push himself. And it helped! Carl also made sure that my partner was clean and generally provided us with a lot of positivity. He was incredible and deserves many accolades. We went through many departments at Harborview and our experience was great but we particularly loved Carl!" - Family member of 5E pt 📸: Carl Delica, RN

“I was incredibly impressed by every staff member, they were amazing. It is clear Harborview is not only an ER but a landing place for so many in crisis. I had no idea how much your staff was dealing with there as the epicenter for so much in the community. Everyone was treated with dignity regardless of the challenges they were facing. It was a beautiful thing to see. I have enormous respect for everyone at this ER. In particular, I noticed Malissa at intake. There were people in mental health crises and she just went with the flow. It was inspiring to see how much love she shared with the people in the waiting room. This looked like a position where others would get burned out but not her! Harborview is incredible." - ED patient 📸: Malissa Walker, Patient Services Specialist
