Who Cares for the Healthcare Professional? by ANGIE BLEVINS

Most healthcare professionals find their jobs to be very rewarding and fulfilling. Physicians and nurses see patients at what is probably one of the most difficult days in their entire lives. Not only do they care for the sick and dying, they comfort and reassure worried loved ones at the same time. Healthcare professionals have a level of dedication that is not easily matched. There is no greater reward than what occurs between a healthcare professional and their patient, when their combination of unique scientific knowledge, clinical skill and compassion helps lead a patient to better health and improved quality of life. I believe this is what keeps the healthcare professional coming to work even under increasingly difficult times.
