Working with the kids.

Published

I would love to work with kids. I think that they all are so cute and they are easier to control. You wont here any complaints or dissatisfaction from them. I currently attend the college of the Bahamas which is located in New Providence. If you haven't visit it yet WHAT!!!!!!!!! are you waiting for cause once you visit you would want to keep on coming trust me. From a small child I always wanted to help the sick and make them better especially kids. Mind you I dont mind the adults but I prefer the Kids and with the help of the Lord I hope that He helps me to make it through.

I think it's great that you have such a good view of children's nursing but trust me they can complain (sometimes more than adults!) and actually they can be aggressive too especially if they do not want to get a venflon in.. This is mainly due to them not understanding that they need it to make them better. I hope children's nursing is what you want it to be.. all the best.

And don't forget about the parents. They WILL be your worst pain! :angryfire LOL. You'll probably have to worry about the parents more than the patient.

Hello, soon to be nurse,

Sounds as if you have an excellent attitude. As you will find out, working with pediatric patients can and will break your heart. They get sick so quickly and can get well just as fast.

It takes a very special person who can work with children, a very special personality. I think you just might be that person.

Good luck.

Please just remember you can't always "make them better." Often helping them die with dignity will be how you help them.

Yea that can be true, they just probably might be a little too concern.
