S3/ E10/ PT1: Neuro ICU Nursing: Where Science, Instinct, and Care Meet

From Lights On: A NeuroMoms Collective Podcast · 20:25

Show by Erin Palmer, Amanda Ream

In Part 1 of this three-part conversation, Erin and Amanda welcome Neuro ICU nurse Erin Moreland Lambesis, whose 26-year nursing career began in neurological intensive care. Nurse Erin explains why caring for brain-injury patients requires far more than watching monitors, it demands close observation, intuition, and a willingness to listen to the families who know their loved ones best. Erin recalls arriving at Barrow Neurological Institute with Dallas after a terrifying medical flight, where Nurse Erin immediately brought order to a room filled with fear, urgency, and four anxious parents. Together, they explore the profound relief of finally reaching a highly specialized neurological team and the remarkable coordination required to prepare for an extraordinarily complex brain surgery. Part 1 ends with the beginning of a trip to the surgical wing that Nurse Erin still considers one of the highlights of her career.
