Nursing Philosophy

I believe in myself to practice nursing in the same way I would want somebody to practice it if they were taking care of me. I  believe in the holistic part of nursing. I believe that every individual must meet their most special needs as a whole individual. To me it is very important to be give culturally sensitive care.  I believe that by accepting and acknowledging diversity nursing becomes stronger.

I believe in following ethical and moral principles to foster the health, safety, and the rights of patients and co workers.  I believe in providing honest information to the patient and family.  I believe in teaching and leadership to promote an optimal level of health maintenance and wellness.  I believe in the continuity of education for professional growth, competence, and critical thinking.

I believe in therapeutic communication to be the key to open respectful interpersonal relationships.  I believe in listening by understanding and allowing patient healing. I believe in the nursing process to meet the patients needs. I believe in today’s nursing by adapting to the changes in this profession to meet the needs of our society.
