Abstract:
As the most influential catalysts for health care reform in America, the time for nurses to emulate wellness and prevention has never been more critical. By creating healthy habits for ourselves, we flourish as ambassadors of self-care for our patients, families, colleagues, and communities. By taking care of ourselves first, we bring positive energy and vitality to work that positively affects others and influences the overall landscape. In essence, the practice of self-care should be expected as part of the professional role of nursing.
