Emily's Crew is participating in the Eversource Walk for Boston Children’s Hospital on June 9, in memory of our dear friend and beloved colleague, Emily Gatzke. Emily began working in CHPCC back in 2015. She contributed to the development of the first comprehensive primary care nursing orientation manual. During her eight years at CHPCC, Emily oriented more than ninety percent of the nursing team to primary care. She elevated the practice of comfort holds during painful procedures by championing the cause with child life and nursing. Emily managed the newborn screen program for primary care serving as the contact and communicator for our at-risk newborns with our clinicians and the State. She represented CHPCC on the Staff Nurse Council.
In 2020, Emily was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma (EHE), a cancer found in only one in a million people worldwide and one for which the various cancer centers and experts she consulted had no playbook. Over the past three years, Emily worked diligently to find potential courses of treatment and document her experience in order to inform future research all while managing her pain, continuing to work as a nurse and spending time with loved ones.
In memory of Emily and in honor of her tireless commitment to nursing - every dollar raised by Emily's Crew will benefit the Boston Children's Hospital "Nursing Fund." This fund helps raise the next generation of compassionate, mission-driven, and family-focused nurses so that they deliver the highest quality care to patients and families.
Please consider supporting our efforts by donating or by joining Emily's Crew! Thank you!
