Nidia: 作为一名临终关怀护士,我深感这份工作的价值和意义。我最初是一名神经科护士,但后来我发现临终关怀更能让我实现帮助他人的愿望。临终关怀的灵活性让我可以更好地安排工作,同时,我也能让患者有尊严地走完人生的最后一段路。我记得我照顾的第一位临终关怀病人,她想结束自己的生命,我帮助她实现了愿望,这让我更加热爱临终关怀。虽然有时会面临情感上的挑战,但我相信,只要我们把自己的情绪放在一边,给予患者和家属支持,就能让他们感受到温暖和关怀。 Lindsey: 我认为临终关怀能让人们有尊严地离世,这在医院里很难实现。在医院里,商业利益往往高于一切,患者的尊严常常被忽视。而临终关怀则不同,它以人为本,尊重患者的意愿,让他们在生命的最后时刻也能感受到爱和关怀。虽然我不是一名临终关怀护士,但我非常钦佩那些从事临终关怀的护士,她们用自己的爱心和专业知识,为患者和家属带来了希望和安慰。

At F&E, we love to hear from all types of nurses because the "average" person is often extraordinary, and so is their story! Our guest this week is exactly that: an incredibly kind soul and a Lindey Shelton fangirl! Nidia is an El Salvadorean immigrant who has battled childhood trauma and gone on to complete a bilingual nursing program before ultimately choosing hospice nursing! She loves taking on the Spanish-speaking patients, she loves her job and she calls it "Heaven's Waiting Room."

Tune in to hear Nidia's full story and chat with Lindsey!
