A triage nurse's desk setup says a lot about the job.
Headset. Water. Sticky notes. Something to keep your hands busy between calls.
But the real tools don't sit on any desk. They're the instincts built from years of experience. The constant context switching followed by fast decision-making. The skill of reading what someone isn't saying.
To every triage nurse out there - thank you for your empathy, passion, and resilience that keeps care connected at all hours.
