What Does it Mean to be a Nurse?
The challenges and rewards of our profession

Challenge

From existing data, the United States requires about 10 percent of nurses because they are
rarely interested in hospitals and sometimes many nurses choose the insurance and
assistants during the practice.

An Essential Role

One sixth of Americans have no health insurance and when health care costs are more
moderate, nurses start to become more important. With that, the nurse and patient insist
on a change for the better.

Reward

Being a nurse is a job that is rarely boring in contrast to someone who just sits around
making reports at the office. How not, if the nurse is always faced with patients in the
hospital.

Nursing is rarely boring or predictable. In few other professions are we present at


life’s most momentous events, from birth to death, from crisis to recovery. For
those who thrive on variety and the full spectrum of the human drama, every day
brings a range of new situations. Our profession usually involves physical
exercise, always good in moderation, as opposed to sedentary desk work.
Nursing is the kind of job where we usually don’t have to take work home with us,
though we may have to stay overtime and will certainly take home emotional
baggage, at least on occasion.

It’s the kind of job where the results and rewards are often immediate. As
opposed to careers where employees co-write reports that pass to higher level
committees, which then consider them before they disappear forever into the
depths of the organization, nursing allows us to get that analgesic to a patient,
help him make that phone call, and explain to his loved ones why he needs a
particular treatment.
Make A Difference

What is clear is that being a nurse has many differences from other professions. The
nursing profession is not just a profession but a hero of humanity.

While each of us sees hundreds of patients in the course of a year, patients often
remember us individually as key to their recovery or care. Most of us have been
recognized by a former patient whom we fail to remember.

a. There is a fact that there are many nurses who burn out and leave the hospital to work at
other places. What do you think are the reasons behind this?
b. As a nurse candidate, what are the essential roles you will have?
c. What do you think is the best reward you can get as a nurse?
d. Do you agree with the statement saying that 'nurse can make a difference'? Why/why
not?
Answer :

a. Sometimes disillusioned nurses burn out and leave the field Recent measures to attract
more students to nursing programs are only part of the solution. Nursing programs lack
enough qualified teachers to produce a healthy supply of nurses. Many graduates leave
hospitals once reality hits them.
b. Nursing in practice provides comprehensive services to individuals, families, groups and
communities, both physical, psychological, spiritual, social, and providing education to
clients. Nurses must also have altruistic value when providing nursing care.
c. It’s the kind of job where the results and rewards are often immediate. We are essential
not only to patients and their families, but also to doctors, who rely on us for vital
information about their patients’ conditions.
d. Don’t agree, why ? We make a difference, sometimes just by listening to someone for a
few minutes or answering a simple question. What may be routine for us is a matter of
life-and-death for patients and we can demystify the hospital structure for them.
