Nursing has always been esteemed by the public as a trusted and valued profession. How often have we each heard someone say: “I couldn’t do what you do” or “your work must be so difficult”. Many of us will smile, and acknowledge that it is hard work yet very rewarding. Rewarding as it may be, the unique challenges within critical care nursing require a persistent professional who is committed to achieving excellence in their practice.
