Philosophy in Nursing
Nursing is a profession of care. To nurse being a synonym to rejuvenate one back, as much as possible to optimal health. To achieve this one must maintain and provide competent care to their patients, adopting to the ever changing practise in the nursing profession. Nursing however does not only require competent knowledge and skills but one of the most important trait the nurse should have is the passion to do, to give and to care indiscriminately no matter the race, ethnicity, gender or extenal traits of someone who is sick or dying. It is a commitment to yourself, to the nursing profession and to the patients in their care.
