The Rewards of Being a Nurse

Of course, one of the biggest rewards of being a nurse is simply this: going to bed each night with knowledge that as a competent, caring nurse, you have made the world a better place. Anyone who has ever been sick or injured and in need of medical care can remember the difference between a caring, competent caregiver and an ineffective or harsh one. Nurses have the opportunity to make a huge difference in the most vulnerable times of an individual’s life. If being a caregiver isn’t something you would find rewarding, then don’t get a nursing job (duh!)
