Nurse Is a Tough Job

When a patient verbalizes his complaints,
You have to listen.

When a patient is crying and dying,
Comfort his feelings. 

When a patient refuses his medicines,
Provide sound decision making.

When a patient wants to be alone,
Respect his privacy.

When a patient is at risk of falling,
Ensure his safety first.

When a patient is hard to understand,
Be a friend to him.

It's not always easy to be a nurse.
You have to protect patients bill of rights.
