אם פגשת אחות ששמה את הצרכים שלך במקום הראשון, שמקשיבה באופן פעיל, עם בסיס ידע רחב, זה לא מובן מאליו. שאל את השאלות הבאות: האם מקצוע סיעוד תומך במטופל, שם את המטופל במקום הראשון, שמקשיב באופן פעיל, אות בניגוד, כטכנאי המוחלף בקלות? הנה מאמר שדן בדיון המתמשך הזה.
If you have had a good experience with a nurse, start asking the following questions: is the system in which she is working supporting her in patient advocacy, in spending time in active listening to patients' concerns, in looking at the whole picture and providing patient education with the patient as focus?
The work that nurses do is shaped by are what they are taught in nursing programs, how the public views them, the management style that they are working under, and their own personal convictions.
Or, in contrast, is the management style above her pressuring her to conform with parroted monologues, and even pressure patients into interventions that they do not want and may not even need?
If you have met a nurse who cares about your needs, do not take that for granted.
It is in the public's interest that nurses are patient advocates with a rich knowledge base and supported in hearing what the patient needs and wants.
If members of the public would advocate for nurses in the above vein, as opposed to easily replaced technicians, then managers would be more inclined to cherish the thinking, creative, patient-centered nurse.
If you have had a good experience with a nurse who puts you first, do not take it for granted. Reach out to her, and advocate for a system that promotes it.
