MacDonald J
Can Nurse. 1999 Apr;95(4):60, 59.
A while back, ER nurse Janet MacDonald was caring for an elderly woman who had suffered a small stroke. The woman was scheduled for a CT scan the next morning, but when MacDonald told her she'd have to go home she became very upset and said she was scared. Very scared. "It was like a slap in the face," says MacDonald, who realized she wasn't caring for the patient's needs, just the hospital's. The nurse in charge agreed the woman needed to stay and they found a place for her.
不久前，急诊室护士珍妮特·麦克唐纳正在照顾一位轻度中风的老年女性。这位女性原定于第二天上午进行CT扫描，但当麦克唐纳告诉她必须回家时，她变得非常不安，并说自己很害怕。非常害怕。“这就像一记耳光，”麦克唐纳说，她意识到自己没有照顾到患者的需求，只是遵循了医院的规定。主管护士也认为这位女性需要留下来，于是他们为她找到了一个床位。
