So if I ever feel the urge to spend a night with Synthetik, all I need to do is talk about banning people?
To be fair, I can completely understand how nurses might act "robotic." I sometimes have an incredibly hard time keeping everything on schedule with just two patients, I can't imagine yet what it's like to have five or six+. But I have met some nurses that just seem like they would be better suited for a different job, like one that involves fewer interaction with people.
Having never been hospitalized myself, it always amazes me what little things can just make someone's day. On the second day of my very first clinical rotation, I brought an old lady's breakfast to her room (we were working in a nursing home, where patient's are expected to come to the dining room). You could tell she had been crying about something just shortly before, and I helped her clean off her table and set the tray down for her. She just thought that was the most wonderful thing in the world, and gushed to my instructor later about how lovely I was.
I don't know how I'll behave ten years down the road, after everything has become routine for me, but at the very least, I'm glad I learned rather early on that the little things really do count.
