A Caring nature. Nurses possess a good heart. Being able to comfort and support people who
are ill, vulnerable, or scared, is the key to being a successful nurse. Gregarious people who enjoy comforting and helping,
however, can thrive in chaotic environments like ERs, but it’s helpful when
working in any medical environment since nurses are patient-facing.
2.
Empathy. Great
nurses have empathy for the pain and suffering of patients. For most patients, being in the hospital is a
traumatic and emotional experience. They are able to feel compassion and provide comfort. To understand how patients are feeling, you
have to put ourselves in their shoes and give them the emotional support they
need.

someone else’s suffering without judgment is the root of compassion.

with the utmost accuracy and detail.

manner. There is no
substitute for experience, but knowledge is the key to being able to make good
decisions. Nurses need to understand topics like
chemistry, anatomy, psychology, and nutrition to do their jobs well. It takes a
strong will to memorize all of the information and apply it in hectic
environments.

plenty of tension headaches.

must be prepared for all eventualities, and be able to act quickly when needed.
