impactEDnurse

A nurse named Ian Miller starts today’s nom­i­nated post from June 2, 2007 with, “We occa­sion­ally have patients or their rel­a­tives com­plain that the nurses seem far too jovial. That we are laugh­ing and jok­ing around dur­ing the shift, dis­play­ing total insen­si­tiv­ity to the suf­fer­ing of those patients around us.” His blog is named impact­ED­nurse and is a ter­rific read. The per­son who nom­i­nated this post could eas­ily have chose almost any post, this nurse/author writes that well. You become aware that this blog is impor­tant by the vol­ume of com­ments both peo­ple in the med­ical pro­fes­sion, and a lay­man reader like The Ris­ing Blog­ger. The post is titled The Grief That is Close. The Ris­ing Blog­ger is very pleased to award this piece of great writ­ing our Post of the Day.
