Being a community nurse allows me to see the progression or regression of my patients. It is very gratifying to know I have assisted them, whether caring for a wound or helping a dying person in their final journey.
I have been with Spectrum for one year and it has been great and very rewarding.
I have been a Spectrum Community Nurse for a great nine years. There really isn't anything comparable in healthcare and we have to be ready for all types of situations.
I think what is unique about being a community nurse is the creativity and ingenuity that patients and nurses develop to deal with any issue, using the resources available at the time. It can require thinking outside the box on some occasions.
It is awesome to be part of the community, taking care of people in need and contributing to making things better for patients. I love the communication that I have with people and being able to see them improve because of the services I provide.
As a community nurse, I get to know my patients as they go through the process of healing, providing support along the way until the treatment is completed.
Working with patients in the community setting allows a nurse to assess the home environment. This unique access helps in the development of an inclusive care plan in collaboration with the patient.
Community nursing is unique because we provide different treatments and procedures to patients in a variety of settings – in the comfort of their homes, in long-term care facilities, and in shelters.
