Phoenix, AZ -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/08/2015 -- We often have more contact with nurses than we do with our doctors, especially when we are in a hospital. They do much more than administer doses of medicine. They check on our comfort, develop a rapport with us and our frequent visitors, they watch our emotional state and progress and offer words of encouragement. I remember when my best friend was in Intensive Care in the hospital and I had her medical power of attorney. It was the nurses who I would check with on a daily basis. Of course I would speak with the doctor as well, but he had limited availability. The nurses were always there and could fill me in on more aspects of her health and wellbeing than the doctor could. They saw the total picture, the whole person. Was she eating well? Was she responsive when we weren't there? How was she coping? I valued the nurses and relied on them to keep me informed, and they did. Please join us Thursday to learn how a pioneer in holistic nursing is helping nurses become even more effective.
