As medical-surgical nurses, we focus on our patients’ nutrition while they are in our patient care unit. We assess their nutritional status, track their intake, and consult nutrition support or a dietician as needed.

December 01, 2021 Teamwork: Keeping Promises, Helping Others, and Listening There is really nothing better than teamwork!

As we come to the end of 2021, I want to thank each of you for everything you do for your patients and each other every day. No matter what setting you work in, your job has not been easy.

This year has not been without challenges, and the way your units look and who you work with may be different now than it was in January. However, I hope you have great teammates to help you get through the tough times and celebrate the joys (big and small).
