Mentioned below are some reasons that corroborate
the importance of nurses to the community

1. Spreading Health Awareness

• Spreading awareness on varied health issues is a
  vital part of the job of a nurse.  A good nurse
  educates the patient about healthy food and
  exercise practices. This ensures that a patient
  maintains good health at all times and does not
  fall prey to lifestyle diseases and problems that
  can be avoided.

2. Managing Chronic and Short Term Illness

• Everyone falls sick or needs medical help
  sometimes in their life. The job of a nurse is to
  provide the patient with the necessary assistance
  in times of need. From changing the dressings to
  cleaning wounds, helping with medicines, the
  profile of a nurse is wide. So, whether a patient
  is suffering from a serious illness or is just
  coping with a minor issue, the help and
  assistance provided by a nurse cannot be
  undermined.

3. Rehabilitation

• Falling ill and battling with the disease is one
  part of the story. But, coping with illness and
  recovery is another. Nurses also play the role of
  rehabilitators. They help the patients to deal
  with and manage their illness effectively and get
  back to their normal life without any hassle.
  They provide all the inputs, training, and
  therapy so that the road to recovery becomes
  faster and much easier.

4. Direct Patient Care

• In critically ill patients nurses provide direct
  patient care. They help the patient to conduct
  normal body activities that are important for
  their survival. So, from monitoring the vitals
  such as oxygen level, blood pressure, etc they
  also help the patient with regular body tasks
  such as cleaning the body, administering
  medicines, etc.

5. Disseminating Health and Safety Information

• In times of COVID, the role of nurses has even
  expanded. They provided the patients with all
  necessary information so that diseases and
  illnesses could be avoided at any cost. They also
  offer information regarding first aid care to the
  patients. So, when it comes to health crises
  management, nurses have a very significant part
  to play.

6. Empathy

• The empathy and care that a nurse shows towards a
  patient boost the morale of a patient. It
  instills in him/ her feelings of positivity. And
  we all know how important a positive attitude is
  when you are recovering. The nurses motivate the
  patients to cope with their illnesses and
  diseases with the strength of mind and spirit. In
  several cases, it has been seen that the patients
  can come out of their problems and garner health
  with their willpower and determination.

7. Advocators of patient

• Whatever a patient wants to convey to the doctor
  or to anyone they can do via a nurse. A nurse is
  someone that a patient vests his/ her entire
  trust on. Nursing is an extremely trusted
  profession and this role of a nurse where the
  patient depends on her/ him both physically and
  emotionally cannot be ignored. Nurses tend to
  spend more time with a patient than the doctor
  and even the family members. So whatever problem
  or issue a patient is facing, he/ she can share
  it better with the nurse that with anyone else.

8. Educating Care-takers

• Once the patient returns home, he/ she will still
  have caretakers in case of need. The nurse
  educates the caretakers so that no mishap happens
  and every single detail is taken care of. They
  provide relevant information concerning the diet,
  timings, medication, etc of the patient.

• So, these are some reasons that demonstrate why
  nurses are an extremely important part of our
  society.  The nurses are now regarded as the
  heroes of healthcare. This is an ever-evolving
  and expanding profession and nurses are fast
  including so many crucial activities under their
  ambit. A doctor provides the treatment to a
  patient whereas the nurse makes sure that the
  efforts of the doctor are not wasted and the
  patient treads the path to recovery.
