Recommended: Role of nurses

Anita, I wanted to write you a letter personally because you mean so much to me. I wanted to sincerely tell you how much I adore you as a nurse. I will never forget our days at East together when you precepted me (our severely preeclamptic patient who had the arm that “kept going like this”) and my face when her BP read 200/120! I also can’t forget your face when I came out shocked! You have taught me so much clinically, but also professionally. I know without you as my senior nurse to look up to, I wouldn’t be the nurse I am today. You are one of the most compassionate and empathetic people I know. You will do anything for your patients and your coworkers. You keep me laughing everyday with our corny jokes, and I will really miss it.

I wish I could’ve done something so that her legs could be in a more comfortable position, but all I could do was observe and get her a cup of ice cold water to drink. During this clinical observation, I didn’t get to see much but overall, it was a good experience. It made me realize what it was like to be in a hospital setting and what it meant to be a nurse. Seeing how the patients were still able to smile through all the pain they went through, it made me want to become a nurse even more because I would also like to make my patients happy. If I could do one thing differently during this clinical observation, I wish I didn’t ask my senior nurse about what externships she took and instead, I wished I asked her more questions about the patients in order to gain more information about

Ultimately the nurse is the one who is in charge of the patient’s well-being. He shared his stories about working in the hospital and how fascinating it was.
