\u201cJy gaan nie ryk word nie, maar jy sal ryk wees aan lewensvaardighede.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
D\u00edt is die mening van Anja De Nobrega, die nuwe verpleegbestuurder van die Vredenburg-provinsiale hospitaal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Internasionale verpleegstersdag breek Donderdag (12 Mei) aan en Weslander<\/i> het by De Nobrega (48) aangeklop oor verpleegkunde en haar nuwe rol by die plaaslike hospitaal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Internasionale Verpleegstersdag herdenk die beroemde verpleegster Florence Nightingale (1820 tot 1910), se geboortedag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cVerpleegkunde is s\u00f3 \u2019n wye veld. Jy kan in byna enigiets spesialiseer en aan die einde van die skof weet jy jy het \u2019n verskil in iemand se lewe gemaak,\u201d verduidelik sy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
De Nobrega het op 16-jarige ouderdom reeds haar loopbaan in verpleegkunde begin. Haar mees onlangse pos was as eenheidsbestuurder in Paarl, maar sy het sedertdien saam met haar man na die Weskus verhuis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Paarl het sy onder meer personeel van die Covid-sale bestuur waar \u201cnuwe planne elke 20 minute gemaak moes word\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hier aan die Weskus is sy nou aan die stuur van die hospitaal se verpleegpersoneel en werk nou met die distrik-gesondheidspan saam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMy grootste doel is om die hospitaal die trots van die gemeenskap te maak. Plaaslik kort hier genesing vir ons personeel weens burnout<\/i>, en daarom is dit belangrik om \u2019n positiewe werksomgewing te skep,\u201d meen sy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vir De Nobrega, \u2019n verpleegster wat in onkologiese en palliatiewe sorg spesialiseer, beteken dit om pret en \u2019n ligter atmosfeer te skep. Sy meen niks sal nooit van die erns en belangrikheid van verple\u00ebrs se werk weggevat kan word nie, maar dit is belangrik vir personeel om \u2019n wil te h\u00ea om daagliks by die werk op te daag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
De Nobrega s\u00ea dit gebeur gereeld dat personeel gevloek en skel word. Sy meen die personeel word t\u00e9 gereeld afgekraak. \u201cEk dink indien ek \u2019n salon bedryf het en \u2019n kli\u00ebnt het s\u00f3 met die personeel gepraat soos sommige pasi\u00ebnte met gesondheidswerkers praat, sou ek hulle uit die salon geskop het. Ons het nie daardie opsie nie, maar indien enigiets spesifiek uit Verpleegstersdag moet kom, is dit vir pasi\u00ebnte om te onthou agter die beeld van mediese personeel is daar \u2019n mens nes hulle.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens De Nobrega is van die grootste frustrasies vir verpleegpersoneel die baie pasi\u00ebnte veral by \u2019n hospitaal soos Vredenburg, wat \u2019n groot streek bedien. Sy meen egter in die lig van di\u00e9 uitdaging is dit belangrik vir bestuurders om hul kollegas te ondersteun. \u201cDit is die bestuur se werk om hulle te herinner en te s\u00ea ja, jy gaan 100 pasi\u00ebnte in drie uur moet sien, maar onthou jou eed en beloftes. Alle verple\u00ebrs het hul loopbaan begin met die doel om \u2019n verskil te maak. Hierdie is opwindend, hoewel fisiek en emosioneel uitputtend, maar ook verrykend vir die siel. Dit is gewis \u2019n lewenswyse.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sy s\u00ea enigiemand wat \u2019n verple\u00ebr wil word moet onthou \u2013 waar dokters in die wetenskap van genesing spesialiseer, moet verple\u00ebrs ook sorg aan hul pasi\u00ebnte bied. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOm \u2019n verpleegster te wees, is nie net om bedpanne aan te dra nie \u2013 dit is die mense wat \u2019n pad met jou sal stap.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
