Hi The World Health Organisation defines health as a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. I am also a 1st year nursing student and this definition has been drummed into us since we started:) You could also go to the WHO website http://www.who.int/about/en/...which may be helpful for your assignment...

Hi all I have a son who was in nicu for 3 weeks and died after the decision was made to with draw support. This happened 3 years ago and i have since decided to start my nurse training with the intention of working in the nicu. i feel personally i have a very unique view of what goes on in the nicu... Anyhow was just wondering do you come across many nurses who have entered into nursing after a loss like mine? im not sure how well i will be responded to... Also i would love to hear anybody elses stories about how they decided that this was the career for them... Thank you
