Importance of nurses in the CF community
Nurses are often the backbone of healthcare and the ones patients rely on to communicate with doctors.
Who has been your most valuable nurse? What is a red flag for you with a nurse? -

In my experiences as a CF caregiver, I have come across a great deal of wonderful nurses and nurse practitioners – as well as wonderful physical therapists, social workers, and physicians. However, there is one standout professional that I can recall – a social worker who went the extra mile for my spouse while hospitalized – checking in frequently, providing words of comfort and advice, and even running up and downstairs the floors of a (very large) NYC hospital to retrieve Uber Eats deliveries for my spouse when needed. These professionals truly are the backbone of the medical world, who keep the machine running without a hitch.

That was so kind of them! I hope your spouse enjoyed the meal, too.
