Happy Nurses Week
Happy nurses week everyone. In honor of the lady with the lamp whom nurses week ends on her birthday, I wanted to pay a little tribute to her.
I love this quote by Nightingale. It really resonates with me. This is how I felt during nursing school. I always did my best to accept and take responsibility for everything. The teacher made a test and it was nothing like the material she presented in class-- I didn't find an excuse. Instead I found an opportunity.
I should've known more. Next time I'll study more. I'll do more. I'll be better.
Whatever I realize I don't know today; I'll make sure I know tomorrow.
Really, to succeed in nursing school and as a nurse you need to develop a thirst for knowledge. Let it be unquenchable. Be a little anti-social. Dig deeper. Read more. Ask questions. Get thirsty.
Anyways, off to class I go!
Xoxo,
Nightingale
