I chose a career in nursing to help and care for others. My personal value/belief system has always been to be compassionate. In the nursing profession you need to have an overwhelming amount of compassion and caring for your patients and their families. I know as a nurse I am not only caring for the patient's physical health, but also their emotional needs. During my clinical experience I enjoyed building rapport and trust with my patients. In order to do this kind of nursing you must have empathy and compassion. Personality and bedside manner are extremely important when caring for patients, however it is not the only aspect of nursing that will allow success, knowledge is truly the core of success in nursing. I am a mother and wife and have learned the skill of organization and prioritizing which helps me to be a better nurse and helps in providing the best health care to my patients.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
