Yes, a 2nd post in less than an hour - Being on the Other Side of the Bed is too terrific to wait until tomorrow!
Betty Long, RN is a nurse advocate. Huh? That means she works with patients & their families, serves as a liaison between them & the medical staff, helps with questions about the ins & outs & 'round abouts of medical treatment, and does her best to ensure patients get the care they need. It benefits both the patient AND the hospital.
Then, BAM! She ended up in the hospital with major surgery & got to see the view from the other side. Went through the gamut of feelings & fears she only knew theoretically before. It was a major education & startling revelation.
Read it! Posting it under my elder blog, but true for ALL ages!
