Nurse's
Prayer
Lord
Jesus,
during
your short life here on earth
You went
about doing good deeds,
healing
the sick,
curing
the blind and lame,
forgiving
sinners,
even
befriending them.
By your
example,
You
taught us to love and care
our less
fortunate brothers and sisters.
Dear Lord, I want to
thank you for my special
vocation as a nurse. I know it is a
noble
profession, very pleasing to you and
very
rewarding for me. I know also that much
is
expected of me as a nurse.
Lord, I will do my best to be a good
nurse.
I will spare no effort to conserve life,
to
alleviate suffering and to promote
health.
I will respect at all times, the dignity
and
religious beliefs of my patients. I will
refrain
from any action which might endanger
life or
health. I will hold in confidence, all
personal
information entrusted to me. I will
endeavor
to keep at highest levels, my
professional
knowledge, skills and values. Above all,
Lord,
I will love you in every patient.
Amen
