When appearances deceive

Nursing, Jun 1999 by Keener, Sherry

MAKING CHOICES

Home health care is about choices. When we leave hospital nursing, we choose to abandon order and structure. Our clients make life choices too, and we have to accept and respect their decisions. We can't jump to conclusions or judge them harshly. With compassion and caringand some creativity too-we can give them what they need.

Sherry Keener is a staff nurse at Wylie P Chalmers Veterans Administration Outpatient Clinic in Columbus, Ohio.
