A Little "Bit" About Me,
the
Nurse }--o

Hello there! I'm Nurse }--o and I'd like to welcome you to my little "waiting room" shacklet! Like most nurses I'm usually pretty busy juggling a thousand and one different things, so please feel free to look around and make yourself at home while you wait. If you're lucky, I'll be bringing in a syringe loaded with the latest pain medication your insurance can afford........ ~grin~
I make my home in the beautiful "Land of Enchantment" New Mexico with my husband Michael and our 11 yr.old son Matthew. I'm a Medical/Surgical Certified RN (Registered Nurse) for the past 18+ years and am currently working the CCU (critical care unit) in the city hospital, and between playing the violin in the local symphony, raising my son and spending time with my family (and being on my computer a lot) I really do juggle all my time! Email or ICQ me sometime!......... *warm smile*

hypo Here's a picture of me,
the juggling Nurse }--o

~ A Nurse's Wish ~

To be a nurse requires dedication,
With years of study and preparation.
I pray for guidance and humbly ask
That I will do well at this chosen task.

When illness strikes or pain demands,
And a life is placed within my hands,
Give me compassion, knowledge and skill
To do the things that comfort and heal.

Suffering makes patients' fears grow worse
And they seek reassurance from their nurse.
Help me see things from their point of view
And always to know what is best to do.

May I have a part in some small way,
In restoring good health to someone today.
Let my work be all that I want it to be --
I ask the Great Healer to work through me.

~A Dedicated Nurse~
Earth Angel
of Mercy and Compassion,
whose healing gift
dedication does fashion.

Whose mission is
to preserve life's gift.
In pursuit of cure,
to soothe the sick
and help the weak endure.

These gentle hands
courageous and skilled
must surely be guided
by Heaven's Will.

Called to care
for better or for worse,
this is the commitment
of a dedicated nurse.

~Being a Nurse~ means....

You will never be bored.
You will always be frustrated.
You will be surrounded by challenges.
So much to do and so little time.
You will carry immense responsibility
and very little authority.
You will step into people's lives
and you will make a difference.
Some will bless you.
Some will curse you.
You will see people at their worst --
and at their best.
You will never cease to be amazed
at people's capacity for
love, courage, and endurance.
You will see life begin -- and end.
You will experience resounding triumphs
and devastating failures.
You will cry a lot.
You will laugh a lot.
You will know what it is to be human
and to be humane.

You know youıre a nurse when . . .

1. Eating out of a disposable emesis basin or specimen container during a pot luck at work is perfectly normal.

2. You think people who throw up or faint after seeing anything less than four gallons of blood are over-reacting.

3. Seeing a steaming pool of half-chewed wienies and scrambled eggs on the sidewalk on the way into work isnıt out of the ordinary.

4. You go out to a restraurant with friends from work and clear a five table radius just by talking about work.

5. Your family would rather have dinner with an insurance salesman than listen to you talk about work-related episodes at the table.

6. People donıt hesitate to ask you advice about festering wounds theyıve got in places youıd rather not see.

7. Men make wisecracks about enemas, diapers, spongebaths or marrying doctors.

8. People call you for medical advice no matter what time of day or night.

9. You think of a vegetable as something other than the edible product of a plant.

10. Slipping in a pool of blood is likely to bring guffaws from coworkers.

11. Most doctors treat you like a secretary, a housekeeper, a social worker, a nanny and a waitress in the ten minutes they converse with you.

12. You can laugh at the idea of taking a homeless manıs underwear to obtain a urine sample, a blood sample and a stool sample.

13. You can accurately critique blood and gore in slasher films.

14. You come home with various bodily fluids on your work shoes.

15. When "hospital administrator" and "management" are considered insults by everyone you work with (example: He was completely useless; a real hospital administrator, or, Get up off your butt and tend to your patients; who do you think you are, managment?).
