Hard workers
Dear Editor:
RE: Deafening silence, May 6.
It was most fitting to write a tribute to nurses who apparently sometimes endure verbal and other disrespect. Of course, they should be well compensated with pay and respect.
As a longtime resident in a large private seniors residence I do not observe that disrespect, nor did I see any disrespect in a general hospital where I received good care and treatment recently.
Certainly hard-working RNs, RPNs and PSWs should be recognized and well paid. As a patient I’ve witnessed real thanks to nursing staff.
As well, we patients/taxpayers deserve recognition and respect too.
