The Label in the front reads" The Care Cart" and on the side it reads Eleanor . My cart is named Eleanor as it was purchased for me by a previous patient named Eleanor.
The patient story that honors Eleanor is most special to me. I talked with this patient for a considerable length of time regarding
her medical diagnosis, mental withdrawal from treatment and desire to give up
fighting for her life. Subsequently, according to the patient and her husband
that conversation caused her to make a direct turn around in how she viewed her
illness and changed her outlook completely. The reason this is a special story
is that neither I nor she remembers exactly what was said that made such a
difference. As a woman of faith, I believe divine intervention was the
catalysis, which only reinforces more profoundly that nursing is a spiritual
calling.
