ESSAY ON: Nursing as a Profession

Number of Pages 10

This research paper: A 10 page paper assessing whether nursing is a profession or a vocation. Today’s nurses are indeed members of a profession, rather than vocational workers or pursuers of an avocation. They are accountable for their own actions, and they are directly responsible for the lives of patients. Nursing is one of the few professions that continually assesses its effectiveness, professionalism and true worth. This constant attention to ways to improve both patient care and nursing quality creates an environment that improves continually, without losing the ground already gained in the past. The paper lists characteristics of a profession and examines how nursing aligns with those characteristics. Bibliography lists 17 sources.
