Thanks for sharing these. I've seen the commercials on TV, but haven't really paid close attention to be honest. With all the negativity that seems to show up frequently on this site, it's good to be reminded of part of what nurses do and to see a bit of the "heart" of/in nursing. Reminds me of why I went into this profession and I need that from time to time....
I do love these commercials and it tugs at your heart strings but clearly whoever 'designed' the hospice commercial doesn't have a very good concept of hospice. jmho.... the closing of the window and say 'not tonight....not tonight' made me giggle. however i love the open window incorporation (which is something a lot of cultures do) ect.... lol awesome commercials though.

It may not be exact, but I think it gives Hospice a more positive portrayal perhaps? When my Grandmother was suffering after a major heart attack (She passed in February after many ICU months) anytime I would even mention Hospice my mom would start to stress. She didn't believe that hospice was about comfort, only death. However I have never worked in Hospice so I am not sure what the real perspective is.

I love the Johnson and Johnson "Campaign for Nursing's Future" commercials. These 2 are my favorites.

The nurses are real, the patients are actors.
