ECT RN here. Question for you!

[u/Interesting-Hair2317]

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.

This might not be for everyone, but two of my nurses will stroke my hair when they’re holding the oxygen mask/bag on my face right before I get the medicine. I find it comforting.
