Marcelius Levites’s Answer
Study study study! Acknowledging nursing instead of trying to understand the role of a nurse! You must understand that sometimes you will not be able to save abs help them all! Prepare yourself mentally, physically, and spiritually! * Don’t take your work home with you*
Make sure you take care of yourself when your at work and off! Your health matters too! Make sure you are passionate about being a nurse! Everyday you wake up “You are happy and can’t wait to see your patients and co-workers!
Always always give 1000% when are taking care of every client because most end up being your family and wonderful friendships!
* IF YOUR NOT PASSIONATE ABOUT IT THEN ITS NOT FOR YOU! DONT FOLLOW! LEAD! *
Is this your passion
Is this why I am on this planet to do
Go volunteer at nursing homes to understand
Find a college that you feel comfortable at
Go get them and Chase your passion.

Crystal’s Answer
The main key things to being a good nurse:
Be compassionate. Always try to remember that the person you are taking care of is someone’s loved one. How do you want to be treated or how do you want your family and friends to be treated? This also goes for how you treat those you work with whether it is someone higher or lower on the pay scale than you. Do not be ok with a culture of “nurses eat their young” or a hostile work environment because someone thinks it is ok to treat new people or others like they aren’t worth anything. Going with this, enjoy helping others. Nursing will challenge you in many ways and it is easier if you truly enjoy helping others.
Love learning. NEVER stop learning. Whether it is a better way to do things, more information about something, or learning something new. Never stop learning. You are a danger if you think you know everything.
Be a person of a good character. If you make a mistake, own up to it and learn from it. Strive to do your best every day. You can help make someone’s day better or you can be a cause of their day being worse. Good luck!
