Nursing is a noble profession. It should be a joy to care for a patient and see progress, because you were able to share your skills. It is great to do a satisfactory job. I love my profession and I thank God for the ability He gave me, to do a good job for my patients.

Remember patients are in a helpless position because they are sick. They depend on us nurses for good care and support. IT IS MY PLEASURE TO SHARE MY YEARS OF EXPERIENCE WITH MY FELLOW NURSES. FOR THIS REASON, JUST CLICK ON THE LINKS:
