Yesterday in doing a webinar for Nurse leaders across the country I was struck by what mammoth challenges they face. After listening to their individual hurdles I explored with them the power and value of encouragement both given and received. We all can make a difference in helping others by being all that they can be by our words and actions. Knowing someone cares and is there for you allows continued dedication to any and all challenges. Also true on the receiving sign because it is not a sign of weakness to need the support and help of others. Today I will follow up with the message to the participants and encourage them to support each other in the important work they do every day.
