My August Salon…. August 10, 2009
Posted by mariemanthey in Uncategorized.6 comments
This one was special in that it was scheduled (by me) right in the middle of a five day practicuum on Primary Nursing. This was the first Practicuum I’ve ever done, and it was a delightful experience for me and for the attendees. We had a great time and we all learned a great deal.
Soooo, in the middle of this event, I had a Salon scheduled…..all the Practicuum attendees opted to come…..so we had a group of around 20-22 people. It was large, but the conversation flowed well, because so many knew each other already from the class.
The theme for the evening ended up being ’self-care’ a hugh challenge for many nurses as well as non-nurses. The beautiful part was the recognition that if we are not taking good care or our own beings, mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually……it is hard (if not impossible) to take good care of others.
I am looking forward to the attendees contributions to the blog…..bring them on!!
