I think being a nurse is one of the noblest job one can ever do, but it’s a pity that many do not see it that way. Being a patient advocate may be the most important of all nursing roles.
As a patient advocate, the nurse’s responsibility is to protect a patient’s rights. This can empower a patient while recognizing that a patient’s values supersede the health care providers.
Nurses coordinate with physicians and other healthcare professionals, creating and evaluating customized care plans for their patients.
That does not mean when you take care of others you should neglect yourself. The new generation of nurses was recently praised for looking good and taking care of themselves after images of nurses went viral on social media.👇🏾
The the post and the images did ignite some different sentiments though about nurses, as some felt nurses of today only cared about themselves more but cared less about their patients.
Others felt the new generation of nurses was better than the older generation of nurses that is supposedly rude and intolerant towards patients.
