One of the many benefits of being a nurse include the skills we develop in patient care which transcend the bedside and seep into our personal lives. We are extremely organized, meticulous, multi-taskers and have very high standards for ourselves. We consistently utilize our knowledge outside of work. If there’s an accident on the side of the road, we are the first to stop and help. If someone is choking in a restaurant or a stranger complains of chest pain, we spring into action.
