Still in a bit of mind turmoil and rang my breast nurse who is once again away this time sick and won’t be back until perhaps Monday. I wish they would employ two nurses so when...
Hi Brenda
I am SOOOOO glad you had such great carers this time. Hope they keep on coming.
I am sure the successful retail therapy also helped, eh ?
When my breast care nurse was going away she had a nurse from interstate phone me to check on any disasters. Perhaps call the McGrath Foundation first thing on Monday and see if there is someone else in you area (or even interstate like mine) that you can use as a backup.
I do think the older nurses have a different attitude (probably due to their training - if they were not suited they simply did not get through) and they are not so hung up on the little things like the younger ones. I also find most of the younger ones use the workplace as their social scene and would rather chat loudly in the hallways then attend to the needs of patients.
Keep up the great posts.
Keep smiling.
Summer :-)
