System for writing thank you notes to a nurse. They give you a little enamel pin to put on your badge that I’m not comfortable possibly accidentally losing on an acute psych unit. Then about every quarter each hospital gives an award to one of the nominations. So like, objectively, at least a few of my patients feel cared for. It’s just hard to feel that way sometimes.
