'What Nurses Do...' Child Interpretations

In celebration of Nurses' Week 2009, and in honor of our nurses, Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt hosted an Art Exhibit based on the theme of “What Nurses Do…” featuring original drawings created by both the Children’s Hospital patients and children of staff. Here's a sampling of the insightful interpretations through the eyes of a child on "What Nurses Do…”
Nurses look pretty in pink	Nurses help people who are sick
- AHHH -Now child, don't shout in the halls - I feel better now cuz The Nurse helped me!! Horrah	-For being a good patient Here's a little treat. -Thank you.
John McElroy my nurse from the 7th Floor of Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt, from Anna	Thay bring Medicane to make you fill better.
- Load him up - OK	Take care of patients. They like to help people. They like to give hugs. They like to have fun. They treat patients who are in need.

Special thanks to the Child Life Services Department at Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt for organizing and hosting this special tribute.
