How did the nurse treat Vivian throughout her experiences? What traits did she display that you would also like to display in your professional practice as a nursing assistant?

Susie is honest, forthright, and empathetic. When Vivian begins to feel the need for companionship, to bear her feelings, something she has not done in her life. In the middle of the night she kinks her IV tube in order to set off an alarm. The alarm causes Susie to come into her room and Vivian reveals how scared she is to die. Susie sits with her and gets her a double popcicle which they share as Vivian cries. Susie then asks Vivian a critical question, if her heart gives out does she want the medical staff to revive her. Susie explains that if they revive her they, meaning Jason, will be able to continue to study her for research which is what he desires, but she may not become conscious again. Or, she can choose to be DNR, do not resuscitate. Vivian decides to be DNR. She is ready to go.
