Congratulations for having written this article,you have inspired me to write one more from my side!

Old Feb 09, 2008 07:28 PM - [quote=Bugaloo;2494784]I have been a nurse for 14 years and over the years I have learned many things. I have learned that there are days when 12 hours feels like 24 hours. I have learned that it is okay to cry because you are frustrated. Just make sure that you are alone when you do it. It is also okay to cry with a patient and their family. [quote]

May I include your thoughts in our NSNA newsletter at school?
