Well now he’s at it again with his most recent article, “Doctors and Nurses: A Relationship in the Works.” Dr. Secemsky has only been a resident physician since June, and according to his new article, he has already learned the importance of making friends with nurses.
“As I quickly discovered,” he writes, “forming strong working relationships with the nurses that are involved in my patients’ care has become one of the most important objectives since becoming a physician.”
After citing a few studies concerning the working relationship between doctors and nurses, he says he’s learned it’s the personal connection that really makes a difference.
“I found that by simply asking my nurse friends straightforward questions about what irks nurses the most about their workplace relationship with doctors, I got most of the answers I needed to start self-improving on this vital component of patient care,” says Secemsky.
He closes the article by saying, “Next up — what nurses can do to improve this working relationship. I’ll leave that for another writer.”
