Heartfelt Thank you from West Houston Chapter of AACN

As we all navigate uncharted waters with Covid 19, we wanted to take a moment and say Thank You to all the amazing, UNSTOPPABLE nurses.

Your dedication to the nursing profession, your patients and your hospitals is truly remarkable. 

 We are all unsure what each new day will bring and the impact Covid 19 will have on our community, families and our profession.

 We, as critical care and intermediate care nurses are fixers and healers.  Work hours will become long and our days/nights have the potential to seem endless.   Please make sure that you’re taking time to take care of you! 

 The following website was shared by a colleague:

Have a cup of coffee or hot tea and take a few minutes to read “Taking Care of Your Mental Health in the Face of Uncertainty”  https://afsp.org/taking-care-of-your-mental-health-in-the-face-of-uncertainty

Please feel free to forward this resource to fellow co-workers.

Even though our face to face meeting is postponed, for now,  we will be thinking of all of you as we, a community of nurses, care for those infected with Covid 19, our families and more importantly ourselves.

Please reach out to us if you need someone to talk too, have concerns or just need someone to listen to you.

We are here for you.
