Guest guest Posted February 12, 2000 Report Share Posted February 12, 2000 In the ER where I used to work, we received many pts. from NRH medics and I can vouch for their compassion. They always presented themselves professionally and I noticed that almost every time when they left, they went to the room and wished the pt and family well. Those simple things made me realize that I should aspire to their professionalism and compassion! Take care, stay safe, and practice mercy, ya'll!!
