Thank you

I've been a registered nurse four months. I would like to take a time out from "nurses eating their young" posts and every bad/sad story I have read to say thank you. Thank you for not acknowledging that my question is stupid but answering it anyway. Thank you for being patient while it takes me soooo long to hook up that piggy back. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to learn something that seems like common sense to you.And most importantly... Thank you for having the patience with a brand new nurse. Everyday brings me a new experience. Every compliment you give me feels like gold, every time you trust me to do it on my own validates me, every time you leave me to handle a situation I know I can't handle gives me confidence in myself.Don't think we don't realize what you give us. I will remember each and every one of you for what you taught me about treating patients(not the disease) and myself. I am fortunate.

Thank you! Over the years my overall experience has also been excellent thanks to the generous nurses and physicians who have positively shaped the provider I am today. :)

Thank you for taking the time to express your gratitude.

How refreshing it is to read something really positive.....instead of complaints, sarcasm, negativity of all sorts.

So again.....THANK YOU!!!!!!

The best to you as you continue your nursing journey.

You're welcome! Make sure your grand gesture makes it to the ears of those who have precepted you, both permanently and intermittently.

And strive to be that nurse when you move from your role as new graduate RN to someone with more experience. Remember how you appreciated so much patience and knowledge that was extended to you and extend that to other new nurses. Keep the circle going and break the NETY perception!

I love to precept new nurses, nursing students and the EMTs. I hope everyone shows the same compassion that you received! Nursing is a 24/hr job and we can't do it all alone.

Love absolutely LOVE this post!!!!!❤❤❤
