Thanks, ER nurses.

Just want to thank ER nurses (and other ER people) for the hard work you do every day. I had to go down there during a busy time last night b/c got hurt at work, and though it was loud and crazy, multiple people coming in, very busy; everyone there was patient, calm, professional no matter what. I really appreciated it. I know that you deal with a lot of complainers & "unsatisfied customers" (I saw many of them last night as they had me in a section of the waiting room pretty close to the intake desk) and that you have a thankless job in many ways, and just wanted to let you know you ARE appreciated.

(even though it was kind of whirlwind and I didn't get to thank everyone that helped me at the time. I did thank the doctor as I was leaving but kind of felt silly as she was at the desk and probably was busy with a lot sicker patients, but didn't think about that till later. I do plan to write a letter or something when I feel better to thank people.)

:loveya:You're welcome......It's a tough place at times. Please heal and be well. Share this with your floor when it seems the ED is dumping again.

I hope you feel better soon. Your "thanks" is very much appreciated to the people who helped you, believe me, it's really nice to hear it from time to time.

Awesome, it's nice to get some gratitude. Rest and heal fast.

I know the people you mention in your letter will be grateful that someone took the time to write about the positive care they received. I saved a copy of letter someone sent to my director a few years ago. It meant a lot to me.
