In nursing I feel we play a vital role in patient care. We are the caregivers and advocators, we see patients through their darkest hours sometimes. Other disciplinary may come and go but we should maintain a listening ear. We should also be observant, just because a patient may be nonverbal they might give cues and insight to how they are feeling and by taking the time out to observe we gain information on how to make their lives better. As a nurse you utilize all you have to allow this person to live an optimal lifestyle, you listen, advocate and even give a gentle smile to make their day. I believe that we can bring the sunshine to the cloudiest of days and that’s our duty as nurses. Well that’s the reason I became a nurse.
