Tips For a Happy Nursing Career

By : Adam M. Anderson

A nursing career can be highly rewarding; but not in the same way other careers might. As a nurse, you walk a winding path and have great opportunity to touch people's lives in a way that others do not. As a nurse, you have immense responsibility and patients look to you as their support system as well as their care giver. Regardless of the overall path of your nursing career, there are things you can learn along the way that will help you gain understanding of yourself, feel better about yourself, and make your nursing career an enjoyable one.

While your job seems to be all about giving, it is important to state that a nurse must find ways to take care of their own health - both physically and emotionally. What it really mean is that you take care of your mindset; you spend time doing the things that make you smile and bring you joy. The job of any nurse can be demanding and draining; and without a system in place to guard your mental attitude, you can find your job satisfaction slipping.

One way that nurses can raise their spirits it through the way they dress. That's right. You have heard "dress for success". Well for a nurse, that means finding a uniform that is both comfortable and professional; but that also makes you feel good about yourself. A great way to dress up for work is to grab beaded lanyards from the store and wear those instead of something Plain-Jane. Beaded lanyards can hold your keys, ID badge and other items safely on your person and make a fashion statement all at once. For the nurse who works with children, beaded lanyards can be colorful and fun and can grab people's attention. Most of all, you will feel good when you add a little color to the way you look and the way you see joy in every day.

Nurses don't often receive recognition for the jobs that they perform day in and day out. However, they must constantly maintain a high level of care. Nurses realize how important their job is just by looking at their patients. Nurses see their patients as the individuals that they are, and the satisfaction they get from a job well done and the smile on the face of a patient is plenty of recognition. Nurses provide care with calm patience and a caring demeanor and receive good energy back from those they care for that the energy is what carries them through the rest of their day. This is repeated time and time again day after day; the great energy received back grateful patients will carry a nurse through an entire nursing career.

It has been said that one of the best ways to lift yourself up is to add value to another person. Nurses do this on a regular basis; to such an extent that it is easy to forget how important a job you perform. Remember to realize the value that you add to people's lives. The payoff is more than you could imagine!
