Nurses play a huge role in the care of the patient. They are often the first line who meets the patients, comforts the patients and family, and educates the patients about next steps to better health and recovery. Nurses are the eyes and ears when the Physician is not present. Our job is to give optimal care and help guide the patient to recovery as part of the health care team. In addition, nurses use evidenced-based practice to better educate patients about living healthier lifestyles. Preventative measures are an important to help preserve health living.
