Particularly one of my nursing colleagues because you all know the hospital better than anyone!! <br /><br />I think my husband will laugh when he reads that you said it was concise--I have a tendency to overwrite but he had the brilliant idea to break this potentially two post series into ten!! I'm so glad you liked it and that you thought it was accurate!<br /><br />Be nice is the first thing I told my family when we had a family member in the hospital last month! I don't think they understood at first what the big deal was all about but once they saw the difference in care they were converts! <br /><br />I'm very sorry to hear about your husband--I'm sure that being a nurse yourself he received excellent, loving care both in and out of the hospital. <br /><br />And of course I have kind words for nurses! Without you guys I honestly don't know where we would be! I realize that many people don't appreciate what you do--if they could just spend 20 mins in your shoes, I think that they would rapidly see the light! Thank you again for all your years of hospital service! I hope you keep coming back to the blog and commenting because I would love to hear your point of view!!:-)Dr. Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07623932786998472098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7188351593917296229.post-11521652269436386782012-01-02T20:24:40.032-05:002012-01-02T20:24:40.032-05:00As an RN with 22+ years of hospital experience, I ...As an RN with 22+ years of hospital experience, I want to commend you on this health care series. It is concise and very accurate. If all my patients did as you suggest, I would be one very happy nurse! I've also been on the other side as the wife of a terminally ill husband. I spent 4 months practically living in the hospital. I did as much as I could do to assist his nurses and they were all very appreciative. I agree that "Be Nice" is probably the most important advice. Thank you for your kind words regarding nurses! We don't often hear it from patients, let alone doctors.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
