He awakens in the Hospital Wing, surrounded by the Quidditch team apparently they lost the match, though nobody blames Harry, except for Harry himself. When Dementors invade the Quidditch pitch during the match against Hufflepuff, Harry loses consciousness and falls off his broom. Harry eventually manages to convince Professor McGonagall and Madam Pomfrey that he is all right and can go to the Welcoming Feast. Madam Pomfrey is pleased to hear that for once they have a teacher of Defence Against the Dark Arts who knows his remedies. Harry says he's feeling fine, that Professor Lupin had given him chocolate on the train. ![]() Shortly, Madam Pomfrey bustles in, telling him he needs attention because of the Dementor. Having encountered a Dementor on the Hogwarts Express, Harry is called into Professor McGonagall's office as he enters the school. He later suggests Ron should take Lockhart to the Hospital Wing to see if Madam Pomfrey can do anything for him. Professor McGonagall agrees that they may go and see her, so they must Madam Pomfrey is mildly vexed, saying that there's no point in visiting someone who is Petrified, they can't hear anyway.Īfter Ron, Harry, and Ginny return from the Chamber with Professor Lockhart, Professor Dumbledore suggests first that Ginny should go to the Hospital Wing he says that Madam Pomfrey will be awake, giving out restorative draughts to the Petrified students. They are intercepted in the halls by Professor McGonagall, and to explain their absence from class, they say that they are going to see Hermione. Harry and Ron determine that the Monster in the Chamber may have been the instrument of Moaning Myrtle's death, and resolve to go and ask her. Madam Pomfrey is in the background, but does not say anything. When Hermione is Petrified, Harry and Ron are taken to the infirmary to see her. Madam Pomfrey does not question how she had gotten a tail, fur, cat ears, or cat eyes, simply treating the problem. Madam Pomfrey heals Hermione after she ingests Polyjuice potion contaminated with cat hair. We can safely assume that Madam Pomfrey is taking care of them as best she is able. Over the course of the year, other students get Petrified and are moved into the infirmary. All she can really do for him, though, is set him on one of the beds and pull curtains around him. Madam Pomfrey is undisturbed, however, until Professor Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall bring in a Petrified Colin Creevey. Dobby, as usual, has to punish himself Harry tries to restrain him, fearing that the noise will wake Madam Pomfrey. While he is in the Hospital Wing, he is visited by Dobby. The potion she gives him, "Skele-Gro", tastes horrible, but Madam Pomfrey has little sympathy, saying that he is in for an uncomfortable night. Once in the infirmary, Madam Pomfrey says that she can heal broken bones almost immediately, but growing an entirely new set is quite a different matter. ![]() When Harry's wrist is broken playing Quidditch, Professor Lockhart "heals" it by magically removing all the bones from his arm. And, as the nurse, Madam Pomfrey was kept busy by sudden colds among the staff and students. ![]() Madam Pomfrey is first mentioned in chapter eight when October had arrived and a damp chill had spread over the grounds and into the castle. She is somewhat put out that Professor Dumbledore has insisted that Harry be allowed to attend the Leaving Feast, but allows him to leave the infirmary anyway.Ĭhamber of Secrets When Harry is in the infirmary after his session in the Chamber, we see that Madam Pomfrey is limiting the visitors that he can have. Madam Pomfrey seems skeptical of his claim that it's a dog bite, but asks no further questions. When the bite swells up and turns green, though, he has no choice. ![]() Norbert bites Ron, but Ron doesn't want to go to the Hospital Wing for fear of revealing Norbert's existence. ‘Madam Pomfrey mended it in about a minute.’” Madam Pomfrey is next mentioned when Ron is helping Hagrid take care of his pet dragon, Norbert. On their way to the midnight duel, Harry, Ron, and Hermione find Neville asleep in the corridor. Madam Pomfrey is mentioned after Neville broke his wrist during his first flying lesson. The compliment made him blush in such a manner that would only be rivalled when Professor McGonagall compared his magical prowess favorably against those of Voldemort. Madam Pomfrey is first mentioned in chapter one when, according to Professor Dumbledore on the night of November 1, 1981, Madam Pomfrey had complimented him on a set of earmuffs he had recently acquired.
