Nursing is more than a career it is a calling. I am blessed to have been called to serve in this honorable profession. A career in nursing provides many options, and opportunities. It is never boring, and there is always a challenge. Nurses welcome new life and hold the hand of the dying. Nursing is both science and art. Science provides the evidence on which practice is based, but care and compassion are forms of art. Nursing is more than a career or a job, it is an opportunity to change lives and make a difference in the world.
