What Does a Confident Nurse Look Like?
You can easily pick out the confident nurses in your list of peers and strive to emulate them. They are the ones who stay smiling during a hard shift and take command during stressful situations. Patients will know them by name and feel more comfortable when in their presence, while doctors look to them when they need special help. A confident nurse takes on new challenges with ease, and will encourage you to do the same.
A lack of confidence is a career breaker in nursing. Create a positive cycle now by entering each shift with confidence, and soon you will find a domino effect of excellent actions and reactions. This will work towards making you feel even better about yourself, and inevitably a better care giver to your patients.
