Yesterday was rough... we were short-staffed and so much went wrong. I was leaving for the day and feeling defeated when one of my patients called out to me as I was passing by. They just wanted to thank me, and it completely shifted my mood. What's the thing that reminds you of why you became a nurse?

It's interactions like that for me. Seeing my patients get better and eventually discharged is the most validating thing in the world. Even more so when they take the time to express their appreciation.

I had a role reversal recently. I went to my doctor for a regular check-up, and it’s a good reminder to be extra polite and appreciative on both sides. The unseen work of everyone is so lost on most.

Things like that make me realize why !

Because I can’t guarantee that and I really don’t know if everything is going to be ok. I was taken aback recently when a friend told me I am calloused and cold-hearted for not being able to say those words. Is she right? Should I start saying this for the purposes of providing comfort only??
