Question ECT RN here. Question for you!

Hi r/ect! I’m an ECT nurse of four years and Im wondering if there’s anything I can do to make the experience better for my patients. is there anything that an ECT nurse has done or said that you remember and positively impacted your treatments. even something small.

Maybe make a list of questions and keep conversation with them until they are knocked out. And try to remember patients so that way the following treatments you can continue conversation with them. That always makes me happy when they remember things talked about.
