“当你娶了一名护士，你就娶了他们的工作”:男子向我们讲述了他当护士的妻子的生活细节
True love can be measured in actions, not just words. And the support that you give your spouse as they chase their life’s greatest passion is worth its weight in gold. One husband who is an example to us all is Cole George who loves his wife Ashley unconditionally.
真正的爱情可以用行动来衡量，而不仅仅是言语。当你的配偶追求他们生命中最伟大的激情时，你给予他们的支持是值得的。科尔·乔治是我们所有人的榜样，他无条件地爱着他的妻子阿什利。
She works endless shifts as a nurse and while she takes care of her patients, he takes care of her emotional wellbeing, the house, and their 4 kids. When Cole shared the story on his Facebook page, the support from the online community was enormous and many felt that they could relate to Ashley’s life.
作为一名护士，她轮班工作，照顾她的病人，他照顾她的情感健康，照顾房子，照顾他们的4个孩子。当科尔在他的Facebook页面上分享这个故事时，来自网络社区的支持是巨大的，许多人觉得他们可以与阿什利的生活联系起来。

We know how tough it is being a nurse, doctor, or other healthcare professional. To see that exhaustion on the job is not an isolated issue, have a read through Bored Panda’s earlier article about how a sister revealed the gritty details of her twin’s life as a nurse.
我们知道当一名护士、医生或其他医疗专业人员有多艰难。要知道工作中的疲惫并不是一个孤立的问题，你可以读读Bored Panda早先的一篇文章，该文章讲述了一个姐姐是如何揭露她的双胞胎妹妹当护士的生活细节的。
According to Cole, while his wife is at work, he makes sure that the house is clean and that all the chores are done. He feeds their kids and helps them with their homework so that Ashley can focus on her vocation with everything that she has. What’s more, he even prepares food for Ashley to take to work. That’s real love right there.
根据科尔的说法，当他的妻子在工作的时候，他要确保房子是干净的，所有的家务都要完成。他给孩子们喂食，帮他们做家庭作业，这样阿什利就可以全身心投入到她的工作中去了。更重要的是，他甚至为阿什利准备食物，让她带着去上班。这才是真爱。

Exhaustion from overwork is by far the biggest challenge that healthcare professionals face. Unfortunately, it is far from the only problem. For instance, not many people think about it, but nurses face actual threats to their health and safety at work. From pathogens and potential injuries from needles to bullying, harassment, actual physical violence from patients.
过度工作带来的疲惫是医护人员目前面临的最大挑战。不幸的是，这并不是唯一的问题。例如，没有多少人想到它，但护士在工作中面临着健康和安全的实际威胁。从针头的病原体和潜在的伤害，到来自于病人的欺凌、骚扰，和实际的身体暴力。
Nurses would love to spend more time taking care of their patients, but lots of them lose hours and hours on end when filling out paperwork and entering data into electronic health records. In other words, time that could be spent nursing people is instead spent on bureaucracy. Which is necessary but eats up huge chunks of time.
护士愿意花更多的时间来照顾病人，但他们中的许多人在填写表格和将数据输入电子健康记录时，会浪费很多时间。换句话说，本可以用来护理病人的时间却花在了官僚主义上。这是必要的，但是会消耗大量的时间。
To learn more about nursing and the challenges that health professionals face daily, Bored Panda reached out to Emily, a nurse who works in an emergency room in Ontario. “Working full-time, you work four 12-hour shifts (two days and two nights). It is a lot of hours, but your body becomes accustomed to the work. The most I have worked in a row is 5 shifts, which is a lot. I know nurses who do 6 or 7 in a row.”
为了更多地了解护理以及健康专业人士每天面临的挑战，Bored Panda网站联系了在安大略省急诊室工作的护士艾米丽。她说：“全职工作的话，你要上四个12小时的班(两天两夜)。工作时间很长，但你的身体会逐渐适应。我最多只能连续工作5个班次，这已经很多了。我知道护士要连续工作6到7个班次。”
She continued: “I thrive on stress. When people code, when a trauma [case]comes in, that’s when I hit my stride. I function better under pressure. That being said, taking care of yourself outside of work helps you manage your work-life balance so you can go in for your set, or pick up that overtime.”
她继续说:“我喜欢压力。当人们编写代码时，当一个创伤(案例)出现时，我就会全力以赴。我在压力下工作得更好。也就是说，在工作之余照顾好自己可以帮助你平衡工作和生活，这样你就可以去工作，或者加班。”
Emily explained that, in her opinion, having more staff in hospitals would help nurses work better. However, she said that what’s also important is “more funding for the floors to keep beds open.”
艾米丽解释说，在她看来，医院里有更多的员工可以帮助护士更好地工作。然而，她说，同样重要的是“为病房提供更多资金以保证增加床位”。
