My newborn was transferred to another hospital NICU unit around midnight. Two nurses on duty came in my room and sat with me as I freaked out. I thought it was because they weren’t busy haha. The next day I realized no, the maternity floor was totally full. My baby turned the corner two weeks later, and we went back to thank those nurses after her 6 week checkup. That baby is 28 yo now. Thank you Doylestown Hospital maternity nurses 👸🏻

Debbie Roberts many years ago, I spent just one night in a PICU room with my daughter who was mysteriously unconscious and mostly unresponsive. I’m told than a toddler, not yet two years of age, should not have a heart rate in the 70s. It was one of the nurses who told me the hospital crib was strong enough for me climb in with her. About 3 in the morning, just as mysteriously, she woke up. We took her back home on Mother’s Day 1997. We never did figure out why she was so seemingly close to death, or why she just as suddenly wasn’t. Doctors get so much of the praise, but nurses do so much of the work.

@YuckyMama 5 жыл бұрын

Debbie Roberts My twins were born 13 weeks early and spent 10 weeks in the NICU. Twice a NURSE noticed a life-threatening problem (my son got septic through his PIC line) and saved my kids life. That was exactly 16 years ago and I still remember the names of the 14 nurses who helped us. I don’t remember the names of the two docs. PS. The first time I held my daughter, she was 5 days old and I was being discharged. I went into the NICU at 1AM in tears. The nurses (2 of them) transferred my child (CPAP& all lines) to my arms and let me hold her. It was Mother’s Day. Their compassion floors me. PPS. They also had to give my son a scalp line. They knew it’s upsetting to see so they saved the hair they shaved, taped it to a card labeled “First Haircut” to make me feel better.

A Doctor of many talents! Well done! I had a Nurse named Maria, she prayed for me as she rubbed my back as I dry-heaved. I apparently was suffering Pulmonary Embolism. I was in emergency Observation. What I was suffering from.....disappeared, and so did the Nurse, as I never saw her again, even when I went back to thank her. Never forget, that a Nurse may in fact be your Guardian Angel or the Blessed Mother Mary in disguise. Thank you to all the Nurses who step beyond duty to pray for and with Patients, it may be the healing touches they need.

After this last year, I’ve struggled so much as a nurse mentally. I’ve gotten into the lowest depression I’ve ever been in. My anxiety is physically hurting my body, panic attacks daily. I finally stood up and got mental help this week, started Prozac, talking to someone. I can’t take care of people until I take care of myself. This Nurses Week I’m finally going to help myself for once. This song makes me remember I’m trying my best..

I'm not a nurse, just a CNA, but our charge nurse is great. She works much harder than she's given credit for and does much more than a lot of people realize. I was going to go to school for nursing, which seemed like the next logical step from CNA but I actually decided to go for health care admin because SOMEBODY who has actually worked on the floor of a health care facility should be trying to take care of the nurses and CNAs (And Doctors, because you all put in some brutal hours.) who take care of our patients.
