My Most Wonderful Pulmonary Team

Wednesday, December 16, 2009 by Matthew S. Starr, MSN, RN, CNA-BC, Asst. Clinical Dir.
As a manager of a pediatric hospital there are many things that warm my heart. This past week my heart was warmed by my most wonderful pulmonary team that decided instead of adopting a Christmas family they would adopt the families of Riley Hospital and serve them two meals in our Ronald McDonald House. They served over 80 families lasagna, pie, garlic bread, and salad. These items were donated from all members of the pulmonary team who performed a most fabulous job.

It brings to mind that teamwork and togetherness on units is essential to patient care and creating a caring environment. There was one father that even began crying as the staff made his plate, covered it in foil, and assisted him back to where his child was sick, so he could eat with his wife and child. He could not believe that the healthcare workers that do so much for them already would go above and beyond to do more for them in their time of need. I have to say, I am so blessed to have an amazing team here at Riley and this is yet another example of what it means to work for Clarian and Riley, and to be the best nurse you can be.
