What is a bold and specific challenge the members of your work unit could do to collectively restore JOY in your work?
Joy in any workplace especially one where those we serve are stressed, afraid, fatigues, and in pain may be hard to find. The joy comes from within and from seeing the joy in others. Knowing that your presence is making a difficult situation better for those you care for..Knowing that your presence is making the work done by your colleagues and team go better…. Knowing that you are gaining from their presence and strength.
The challenge is to find the joy in the everyday challenges… soothing a sick toddler, positioning the elderly man so that his pain is less, touching the terrified adolescent as they face the unknown.
Nurturing our colleagues, sharing our talents, seeing the cup as half full rather than empty, and each day seeking the truth in what you accomplished that made the day better for your patients, your colleagues and yourself.
the challenge to all of us is to not get stuck in the mire and to rise above to see that our work, compassion, caring, expertise is making a difference! that is the joy in nursing.
