Meeting the support group was enlightening and interesting to see a patient with disabilities point of view in regards to nursing care, their illness, and functioning in daily life with their disabilities.
Of note was how importnant a social life and contact with other people is when home bound.
We also noted the gap that exsist between hospital care and the daily living expenses like food, computer access ect.

Yes, it was very interesting to hear their points of view regarding nursing care. As nurses, we usually only hear what their immediate issues are such as getting pain meds, treatments and questions like when will the Dr. see me or when can I go home. We usually don't know how they feel about their overall experience.
