Caregiver and nurse, Summit General Hospital

🇧🇷 Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil
Summit General Hospital
Since 1994
Portuguese

I've been a nurse for 32 years, most of them in dialysis at Summit General Hospital in Recife. Night shifts taught me patience, and patients taught me everything else. I've held a lot of hands. I wouldn't change a thing. Hearing from old faces is the best part of my week.
