[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am an ICU nurse and coded a patient at work last night, and we got them back. You know what gifts we might get?! Zero. Teachers don’t need gifts, they get paid to take care of your child.[/quote] That’s a really nice thing you did as part of your profession. But it’s also a checkout line. You don’t work with the same patients daily for 10 months out of the year or establish meaningful relationships with them and their families. If you did, I’m sure you’d get gifts. Your job and a teacher’s jobs are very different in terms of relationships up building, closeness and the amount of guidance you provide.[/quote] +1 We give gifts to the nurses we can recall. However, in the midst of a few highly traumatic days many patients and their loved ones might not actually be able to distinguish you from the other nurses. They also might be busy with try to arrange for continued care or simply trying to recover emotionally. [/quote]
