Like every job in the medical field, nursing takes a special person who is willing to be selfless and patient. Here are some tips on how to be a good nurse.
1. Listening skills
One of the most important traits a nurse can have is good listening skills. This can be either on the patient, or it can be on the doctor end. When you have good listening skills, the patients are better off in your care, because you can tell the doctor what they are feeling and they feel like you actually care about their needs.
2. Double check instructions
Good nurses always double or sometimes triple check their instruction. Thhs can be from the test the doctor ordered on the chart or the shot they are ready to give a patient.
3. That special touch
In order to be good nurse, you need that "special touch". You know just how to make the patients bed, or give them a sponge bath in their bed. You know how to make them feel like you are their grand mother, someone who really cares about their wellbeing.
4. Be observant
There are many people and things around you. Being observant to the doctors the patients, and the personnel is a good way to prevent mistakes or situation where someone could get hurt. Good example: there is a patient in room 261 who has a problem breathing which you can hear when you walk by their room. You can either A: ignore them, B: go ask the nurse who has them to check on them, or C: actually go in the room and check on the patient. If you had choosen C, you might have noticed that their oxygen level had dropped considerably and they needed immediate attention. Being observant to your environment is a great trait for nurse.
5. Attitude
Have you ever noticed that when you have a bad day and express it, people around you start to have a bad day? That is why nurses need to have a positive atitude when they are in their work environment. Now, if you had just lost your only son to cancer, then yes your contenance will be sorrowful. Yet you need to lay aside your personal life and make your patient's day as bright as possible.
