It is our responsibility to be the social change. We are respected as nurses, and we need to do something with that gift. To change our world 🌎 one nurse at a time.

I believe we need smaller nurse to patient ratios. It is reduces med errors, reduces hospital acquired injuries, and helps nurses get back to the basics in nursing. When there are high nurse to patient ratios you are constantly running around trying to not drown in patient care and med passes. Sometimes there is not enough time to connect with each patient. Our patients deserve the time. They deserve to not feel rushed, like they matter.

I took the social change agent quiz and my results were purposeful participant. Which means I am strongly guided through work and school activities. Which I believe to be true. I chose my nursing career to make a difference. I wanted  to be there for my patients. I feel like I have had a good day at work when I can connect with the person I am taking care of.
