Personal Narrative: My Nursing Philosophy Of Caring And Compassion
290 Words2 Pages
There is one quote that I always abided by and I feel that it not only relates to my everyday life, but also my nursing philosophy of caring and compassion. Well said by Maya Angelou “They may forget your name, but they will never forget how you made them feel!” to me is a very powerful saying. It ties into my whole reason of giving whether it is to the Salvation Army, to my classmates, or even to my future patients. Some patients may be so ill that maybe they aren’t able to catch who their care provider is. Some cognitively impaired patients may not be able to remember names or faces, but they are able to feel. Making someone feel better than the condition that they arrived in is an unforgettable experience and that is what matters most.
