“I wish we had more time to spare, I wish people would see how much we care. I know that we are failing you, but we’re at breaking point. We’re people too.” On #InternationalNursingDay2022, here’s a reminder of the web of empathy needed in our healthcare systems every day. This short film is based on a poem by nurse Miriam Barber, who also stars as herself.

“I wish we had more time to spare, I wish people would see how much we care. I know that we are failing you, but we’re at breaking point. We’re people too.” On #InternationalNursingDay2022, watch this short film based on a poem by nurse Miriam Barber, and adapted to film in collaboration with writer and director James Soldan. Miriam initially wrote the poem after a particularly challenging shift on an understaffed and overstretched NHS ward, where she was trying to provide care for a patient whose illness made him totally unable to communicate his needs. Wanting to share the realities

This time last year #AMileinMyShoes had just opened at the Australian National Maritime Museum, sharing a collection of new stories from Australia’s diverse immigrant and refugee communities. Got us thinking also about this fragment from academic Andrea Witcomb, which the museum’s curator Kim Tao cited while we were making the project: “Affect works through evoking, moving or touching the viewer, producing a visceral response that promotes empathy rather than just simply sympathy. Feeling empathy is a prerequisite for dialogue, for the recognition of commonalities. While sympathy can reinforce differences by operating in terms of power relations, empathy can build bridges.”

A lot of interesting bits in this article, but one sentence inparticular has really been rattling around the brain this week: ~ ~ “How do we navigate empathy when the structures meant to ‘care’ for us are breaking or nonexistent?” ~ ~‘If I followed me, I would mute myself’: confessions of a former pandemic shamerwww.theguardian.comI yearned for the partiers, the people posting as the virus raged, to be publicly shamed. But everyone is processing this differently, and I can’t change that
