How does good humor and/or caring spirit show up in your work at SCL Health? 0:46 There was a patient on the unit that was here about three months. And when you're here for an extended period of time, you have a lot of ups and downs and sometimes more downs than ups. And one day she was just having a really bad day. Things weren't progressing in the right direction. And I noticed that she had really pretty long nails. So I stepped out of her room, I came back in, and I said, "Hey, how about we have a spa day to kind of get you in a better mood? And hopefully we forget for a little bit that you're in the hospital." So I gave her a French manicure, and we had a really good time. We chitchatted. And that was just a way of me showing a caring spirit. SCL Health is an equal opportunity employer.
