It is so easy to not only get caught up in our daily tasks, but to also "lump" our patients together. Each is a special individual with special needs and special blessings they give to us. We all need to sit back and regroup more regularly than we do. Thanks again! Thank you so much for giving us a well-said reminder of our purpose.

I too, have had to stop at times to remember what my true calling is. I love bedside nursing, but sometimes find myself task oriented and not people oriented. I needed that message and would like to express my gratitude for sharing it! That was wonderful to read. I too, have had to stop at times to remember what my true calling is.

Thirty years ago I thought I knew quite a bit, as my mentor taught the healthcare studio at Auburn University, and he designed one of the Southeast's first large, private room facility (seven stories ... every patient room with a view of the Pisgah Range!) Fifteen years ago, I was quite sure I knew more about the healthcare environment than most, having added the "up-close and personal" experience of round-the-clock wound care, catheters and medications for two aging family members. But I really didn't focus on "The Rose" until I studied it while connected to drains, ports, pumps and monitors. While I wouldn't deliberately wish it for all who care for the ill, the "Wounded Healer" perspective has brought the greatest clarity to my work. Thank you for giving me a special place to see others gain better health, in every way possible.

It is easy to get caught in the daily frenzy, but we too often neglect to step back and take time to smell (and see) the roses. Simple, yet profound… thanks for the reminder!
