First Year Nurses Prayer

This is adapted from the Serenity prayer. It is my bit of encouragement to all of us. I am five months in on a surgical-telemetry floor. Some days are great; others I feel incompetent. But all I can do is my best. Good luck to everyone.

God, grant me the serenity

To accept the things I cannot change;

To have patience with my colleagues and patients;

To bring a positive attitude to my workplace;

To continue to learn and grow;

To have courage during stressful situations;

To see and use my resources;

And the wisdom to trust in You.
