THE WORLD OF NURSES

Reason for becoming a nurse:

Nursing is a professional degree case and provides you security and scope to work abroad.

Inspiration:

Many of relatives are my inspiration.

Happy moments:

When we see patients improve, get well and get discharged.

Sad moments:

Patients’ suffering and death. Example: When I was on Covid duty, a patient was brought in with fever. The next day, she was put on a ventilator—and died soon.

Worries:

During the pandemic, we naturally worry about our getting Covid.

Moments when we feel bad:

When patients have to go through painful medical procedures.

What we bring them:

Good nursing care, as well as psychological support.

A tough situation I faced:

One day, when I was on duty, someone was brought in as an outpatient. She was paralyzed, and suffered from bed sores. Then she got a heart attack and died.
