Nurse : A Force for Change A Vital Resource for Health
Keywords:
Nurse, Nurse health, Nurse work, Health work environmentAbstract
The importance of the work environment has been significantly underestimated as a key aspect of understanding in the deployment of nurse resources. Without a good working environment adding additional nurses to the workforce may have little or no effect, whereas adding nurse to a good working culture will have a significantly greater benefit. Too often we forget that nursing is much more than this, it’s all about caring. Nurses work, no matter bound by paper work, short on hands, sleep & energy but nurses are rarely short on caring. Our job as nurses is to cushion the sorrow and celebrate the joy, every day, while we are just doing our jobs.
