Thank you for the link to the nursing survey! I hadn’t seen that. 79% of nurses say they’re understaffed! I wonder what the not-understaffed 21% do?

Diane, the survey I received in my email this week was the latest one. As I read, I noticed that most of the high satisfaction scores were reported by nurses who work in administrative roles, and not at the bedside.

I am so grateful for those in the nursing profession, and I feel compassion for those who feel they just can’t handle the strain of it any longer.

Thank goodness you’ve found a way to regenerate your strength and spirit each day, and are generous enough to share the message. Hopefully it will reach all who need it, on both the caring and the healing sides of the medical realm.

Oh, a yellow-shafted Flicker feather! I always forget that the eastern side of the country has the yellow-shafted variety. I live out west where they are red-shafted. Such beautiful birds.
