Lpn Class President with a loss of words for welcoming speech

Hellllllo Nurse, BSN, RN · May 22, 2004

You could include a reading. You could have hand outs, so the grads can follow along with you.

Here is a great one:

Being a NURSE means...

You will never be bored.

You will always be frustrated.

You will be surrounded by challenges.

So much to do and so little time.

You will carry immense responsibility

and very little authority.

You will step into people's lives,

and you will make a difference.

Some will bless you.

Some will curse you.

You will see people at their worst ..

and at their best.

You will never cease to be amazed

at people's capacity for

love, courage, and endurance.

You will see life begin .. and end.

You will experience resounding triumphs

and devastating failures.

You will cry a lot.

You will laugh a lot.

You will know what it is to be human

and to be humane.
