Thank you can, heather. I hope that was as powerful to the supervisors as it was me listening to it. The struggle so many nurses have been in so long to get an ear is very moving to me. Its also moving to me that our patients suffer from all the things that youre hearing. Were very dedicated people. Nurses are good people, were short on ego, were long on competence, we do our jobs because we care about people and we dont like suffering. What we see because of these problems is more suffering that could be fixed. So Patient Experience, im not going to spend time on this.

The worst the worst day of my week is when i have a patient who is decompensating, running out of breath, turning blue, sweating and i have to say, we got to ....

And finally, id like to recognize a great employee of our city for many years and who is just retired from the department of dbi, like to recognize bill strong. Is bill here . I owe him a big lunch because i was away when he retired. During his time, he impressed us very much with his knowledge and professionalism and attention to detail. I know i speak for my colleagues as well when i say we will miss him.

I dont know how many times i tried to upset bill and i could not. [laughter] and i made genuine efforts to do it. He ....
