As an NP, we spend the majority of our time with the patients, which give us the advantage of being connected to the patient more than other health care providers. Also, we gain their trust, bond with them and develop a strong relationship with them. Conveying bad news should be taught throughout the continuum of nursing education, with basic skills being introduced early in the curriculum and graduated learning and skill-building opportunities provided appropriate to the developing health care providers e.g. permitting students to be present during the provision of bad news to patients and/or family members. Bringing the learner into such difficult and emotionally charged situations requires that faculty can both role-model appropriate skills and commit to prepare and debrief the learner for effective learning to occur.
Roles of the Professional Nurse The role of the professional nurse in today's healthcare setting continues to expand as our healthcare delivery system in the United States changes. Historically, nurses have delivered care in a system that has been "illness" centered. Increases in knowledge of disease, coupled with a desire to decrease the costs of delivering health care have shifted the U.S. model of care to one of prevention (IOM, 2010, p. 1-1). The professional nurse continues to have eight interrelated roles in caring for their patients.
It is the person and their physical, emotional, and psychological needs that are the basic focus of nursing’s attention. In order to care for a patient, the nurse must incorporate all these needs.

A strong foundation allows the educators and nurses to work together and properly meet the student’s

Uniquely, nursing is its own world in the healthcare system, in which people come together to provide a further approach in the care of the patient. Nurses have shared values across the board, which include: holistic (physical, mental, and emotional) care, patient confidentiality, integrity and diversity. Essentially, when the values are brought together, it creates the perfect environment in which highly satisfactory patient care can be achieved. In nursing, to attain good patient care, three main genres that must be met are: verbal communication, nonverbal communication, and documentation. The importance of these three genres makes, or breaks, the care being provided.

When it comes to patients, it is important to remember each person possesses different physiological and psychological makeup. Also, every person is unique, dynamic, and multidimensional to a certain aspect, thus requiring a different course of action to be taken by a competent nurse. Which is why I believe that nurses should try to adopt a holistic approach in caring for patients because of the interrelatedness of all the
Providing care to a patient is a particularly challenging process that requires a great deal of effort from a nurse. A nurse’s ability to give quality care to their patient is an important aspect to a patient’s life both now and in the future.

Given this, I believe that the standards of knowledge, advocacy, and self-awareness are foundational to the nursing practice and to a nurse’s capacity to provide quality patient care. Knowledge
