I became a nurse to actually be with my patients, but my shift is a sprint of charting, alarms, and call lights. Just when I sit down to really listen to someone, my pager drags me to the next room. I want to give presence, and the system keeps turning me into a machine that just moves fast.
More people experience this than they realize.
