Nursing means nurturing. It is an art of caring for people, not only those physically sick but also emotionally, mentally and psychologically ill individuals who need someone to nurse them. They need someone to provide them with something that they can’t endow to themselves. In that scene, nursing comes in. Nurses provide holistic care to patients because as nurses, they are gifted with that faculty to care. It is innate in them.

But with the booming population of nurses here in the Philippines, that notion of nursing comes to waste for a reason that a lot of people takes nursing courses to seek for financial stability. To this, I strongly disagree. In my own opinion, caring should not be based on the monetary value that you get but on the fulfillment of the service that is being rendered to the patients.
