For me, I had to accept that I wouldn’t always feel ready and that’s okay.
I stopped chasing perfection and focused on showing up, even on the hard days.
There is no justification for assaulting a colleague at work.
People should stop behaving like animals, if you have a misunderstanding there are channels to address it.
You shouldn’t be avoiding harm from angry patient and still be on your toes with colleagues at work.
Nothing justifies physical abuse at work place.
One thing every nurse should learn early is that confidence is not the same thing as certainty.
The LASUTH vecuronium case is a painful reminder of that.
Even when you think you know a medication, check it. Read the label. Confirm the order. Ask another nurse if you need to.
There is no prize for being the nurse who was too confident to ask.
As a nurse practicing in US, UK, canada or Australia, Nursing can be their only source of living. Guess what?
They will be so comfortable.
It's emotionally, mentally, and physically exhausting to jump from one work to another in a country like Nigeria just to make ends meet.
No be life be that oo..
No be life.
Another Sunday, and I’m grateful that Lauretta is still here with us.
My prayer today is that God gives my sister strength for every treatment ahead, provides everything we need, and brings this journey to a beautiful end.
Please say a little prayer for Lauretta today. And if you’re able to support her treatment, please do. 🤲🏾
Please don’t give up on my sister.
