What's the fun part of being a nurse?

^ i remember when one of my patient in MS ward, gave me a bar of chocolate as a token of gratitude, they like me as their nurse for a week :)

i like it when i see my patients after they got out of the hospital and whenever they see me they always say thank you for caring for them..that is so nice to hear..and some will also give you tokens of appreciation but thats just bonus..the best part is seeing your patient well..^_^

hello again! nursing is really fun profession! actually you won't feel the excitement yet in your early years in college. since the major subjects will come in your later years... but anyway, i assured you that you'll enjoy every moment of your duty in hospitals. you'll experience catching a baby on delivery, meeting psych patients, feeding comatose patients, you'll get to see the bloody abdomen in surgery and the most exciting i experience was seeing a beating heart out of a man's chest! but mind you, in your student years, you have to experience the mastering of vital signs! if you really love people and enjoy helping them, this is the best profession for you. but if you're looking for a money earning profession, better change your course now! nowadays, it is really hard to find a job. and as nurses, we can compare our salaries with sales ladies... anyway, hope you find nursing really exciting and fun. welcome to the nursing world! hope you excel on it!

Nursing is fun and cool for me, coz i really like helping another and i don't know why can't describe the feeling ^^, giving meds, advices, caring and others. I've graduated from Nursing this last may, and i really miss my school days especially when i'm on duty in special areas like E.R/O.R, but i like most is at E.R, the tense especially when someone got rushed into the E.R you should relax and have presence of mind. GL on your career

being stupid sometimes espcially when it's your first time to do this and that.And when you think about it,you'll just laugh on it despite the fact that it's some kind of negligence.

The most inspiring thing of being a nurse is you meet a lot of people of different stories and as they share with you their own experiences and sentiments you will realize how difficult it is to be sick and if no one cares about you. You will learn a lot from them and sympathize sometimes.

I cant think of any right now, but when I do, I will get back to you. Enjoy your week end.

The money is always nice. Nursing can be stressful and intense. Most of the time the pay makes up for it.

After my 10pm-6am shift, I go buy something to eat in a carenderia (local food is served there). I was near the gate of the hospital when a man came rushing in asking for help. I overheard him explaining to the security guard that a woman was about to give birth in his tricycle (local vehicle in the philippines). I looked around to see if there was another nurse around or someone but there was just me, the security guard and bystanders. The pregnant woman was already at the gate of the hospital holding on to the beams. I immediately went to her side thinking that she was still in labor. Guess what? She told me that the baby is already in her shorts. "THE BABY IS OUT." I couldn't do anything fearing that if i remove her maong shorts that the baby might slip and do some serious damage to his head. I just asked her to remain calm and held on to her pants just in case. Thankfully the security guard radioed the ER team just in the nick of time. The baby as you may ask is fine. and did i mention i Love being a nurse? :)
