Night Shift Success: A Guide to Feeling Your Best
Our purpose is powered by the remarkable individuals who shape our community - patients and staff alike. Take it from our employees: the grass is greener at Gaylord!
'Working Together, Caring Together'
"The night shift is a family: we work together, we care together. After the noise and commotion of the day and evening shifts ends, after therapies and visitors go home, after all the stressors of the day end, the night shift is there to comfort. We see a side of the hospital the busier shifts don't see. In those night hours we're able to provide extra comfort to our patients. Because no matter how old you are, hospitals can be scary, lonely places. Night shift nurses make a real difference, helping patients feel safe and cared for, helping to sooth the mind and soul."
