The last year has been the most challenging of my nursing career.
Nursing critically sick Covid-19 patients and looking after their families has been a physical, emotional, and fulfilling journey during which sadness, resilience, loss and team spirit have often collided.
I am delighted to share with you some of the songs that have brought me a sense of calm and happiness in between shifts.
Alternating instrumental ska, neo-soul, Jazz and Alt-Country, hailing from across the globe – Sao Paulo to Paris via Chicago – this playlist is called “Inspiration Restoration”. It contains many of my all time favourites and some hidden gems alongside new discoveries. I hope you enjoy the selection.
I dedicate this playlist to all the Critical Care team.
