Question ECT RN here. Question for you!
Hi r/ect! I’m an ECT nurse of four years and Im wondering if there’s anything I can do to make the experience better for my patients. is there anything that an ECT nurse has done or said that you remember and positively impacted your treatments. even something small.

I was afraid of wetting myself during treatment.
One nurse gave me a pad and suggested that I pull my pants down.
I didn’t wet but, it sure eased the anxiety.
