As a nurse, you are a billboard for the profession. Your actions and words are seen by patients, family, peers and the public every day. Are you portraying the image you want the world to see? 

Are you compassionate? 

Are you supportive? 

Are you nurturing? 

Are you civil? 

Are you skilled? 

Are you knowledgeable? 

Are you inclusive? 

You have an audience, and a brand new opportunity every day to share your message. 

You may be the only billboard in town. You may be stuck on a road where few people travel. You may be in need of a good cleaning, or your graphics may be peeling and faded. It doesn’t matter – you still have a message to send. 

 

“Be the change you wish to see in the world” – Mahatma Gandhi
