Challenge Tips

It’s day 9 of the #EndNurseAbuse challenge.

Every nurse needs to be a role model for good behavior. Spreading kindness is simple. Say hello, make eye contact, or smile when a colleague passes by – and if you see a fellow nurse struggling, offer assistance.  Expressions of gratitude are always appreciated as well.
