Embracing Nursing: Compassion as Our Guiding Light
The Role of Nurses in Empowering Others
In the words of an unknown philosopher, "God appoints our graces to be NURSES to other mens weaknesses." This profound statement captures the essence of nursing, a profession that involves not only providing medical care but also nurturing and supporting those in our care.

As nurses, compassion is our guiding light. It drives us to empathize with our patients, to understand their fears and anxieties, and to treat them with dignity and respect. By embracing compassion, we create a safe and healing environment where our patients can feel truly cared for and supported.
