Ricardo Vieira
Caregiver and nurse, Salvador Children's Hospital
- 🇧🇷 Salvador, Bahia, Brazil
- 1983 to 2017
- Portuguese
I've been a nurse for 34 years, most of them in palliative care at Salvador Children's Hospital in Salvador. Night shifts taught me patience, and patients taught me everything else.
I take the work seriously, though not myself. Small things matter when someone is frightened.
More about Ricardo
I still get cards from families years later. They're pinned to my fridge.
