Sure thing! My pleasure. Prof.Alderman is very smart! My friend at the hospital published a book of these quotes...so I thought that quote fit well with the question presented :)

bahahaha very cool. I have plenty of more quotes and wisdom to post!

LOL...These are very good! Green lettering for St.Patrick day

"It is not how smart you are, but how smart you want to be. You can do anything you want; you just have to be persistent. Always set goals and look to the future. Looking toward the future must include refl ecting upon the past, synthesis of perceptions, and connecting with what is known. Explore all possibilities; accept challenges, both professionally and personally." Pamela l. Alderman, RN, MSN From book Words of Wisdom: Nursing

Thanks for the comment! Ive actually seen that type of incident before. It is very sad especially when the patient is neurologically compromised and they have no control. I will continue to post pearls on here. Happy St.Patricks Day

1). The sharp end of anything ALWAYS goes toward the patient. 2). If the patient is over 75 years of age and doesn't respond to verbal or physical stimuli, they are either deaf or dead. 3). You can't fi x dead, nor can you make it worse. So, calm down! 4).There will be patients you don't like, relate to, respect, etc. Carry those feelings in your heart, not on your face.
