Losing Patients You Know Well (emotional)
This emotionally charged episode was originally recorded in early 2017 regarding the death of a patient Adrianne had known for years.
This is a monologue about coping with death as a nurse. It is emotional, so be warned that this will pull at your heartstrings. It is especially relevant for Adrianne to share because 2019 and early 2020 have had their fair share of losses.
If you have experienced loss, you are not alone. Adrianne also provides some suggestions for coping and resources to seek. If you are struggling with emotional or mental health for any reason, reach out for help.
One resource is the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI).
The NAMI HelpLine can be reached Monday through Friday, 10 am–6 pm, ET. 1-800-950-NAMI (6264) or info@nami.org
The NAMI HelpLine is a free, nationwide peer-support service providing information, resource referrals and support to people living with mental health conditions, their family members and caregivers, mental health providers and the public. HelpLine staff and volunteers are experienced, well-trained and able to provide guidance.
