Taking care of nurses
It’s a nurse’s to care for her patients and help them recover from their illness. This doesn’t just mean giving patients medicine. Part of the may involve giving them advice on improving their diet and exercise routines so they can increase their and avoid becoming ill again. But who looks after the well-being and of nurses?
While trying to satisfy the demands of busy schedule, some nurses find it difficult to take the time to take care of themselves. This is especially true of young, nurses.
Because nurses have a very lifestyle and are constantly rushed off their feet, they’re unlikely to need any exercise. However, many nurses often don’t have a diet because they’re too busy to eat properly during the working day. This can mean relying on snacks instead of having meals. So some nurses may not be getting the nutrition they need to maintain energy levels or fight off infectious diseases.
Every day is the best day, but the most beautiful day of my life is when someone new comes to our house, and it's my little brother. I still remember the day he was born. When I went to the hospital to see him, I saw that he was really small and cute. His eyes were large and his cheeks were red. Seeing that I now have a little brother like the others, I feel happy. When I say this about my friends, they also congratulate me. Everyone came to him. I played with him, too. When he smiles, he looks more beautiful and innocent. During the game, his little fingers hold my hands, and then he laughs when he sees me. I can't Express how good I felt that day. But I was really lucky to find a nice brother like him. When he was born, it was the most beautiful and best day of his life. And because of him; now I'm also an older sister, like the others who have to take care of his little brother.
