Nursing is an Art of Caring

I am a nurse....it's my "calling", not a job...
I have some things to share, please pull up a chair and visit a bit.
What I have to say will never hit the newspapers or history books,
but perhaps it will touch a place in your heart and soul.
First of all, I know a great deal about being a patient. I continue to learn more things about being a nurse.
On this page will be links to some great health care sights.
I also hope to put some links about nutrition and information that a patient has a right to know, where to go for answers to questions, or at least a good start.
I would also like to share a few stories about some special patients.
"Thoughts to ponder", if you will.

You should know a little bit more to appreciate some of the stories. First, I became a certified police officer.
I worked in a jail as a matron, correctional officer and a Deputy Sheriff. After finishing nursing school,
I was hired as a nurse in a Prison Unit of a hospital. My patients were also prisoners.
Now, please remember that everyone needs help sometimes
and prisoners are people that have made mistakes.
I never treated an inmate or patient any other way than
I would want to be treated if in their position.
I try to live by the Golden Rule.
No matter what, loosing a patient to death is never easy!
