I think this says it all!

“What stood out to me the most is how even the smallest interaction—a quick screening, a conversation, or simply pointing someone toward the right resources—can make a real impact. Beyond the clinical skills, this experience has deepened my understanding of how trust, education, and advocacy shape patient care. Nursing isn’t just about treating illness; it’s about meeting people where they are, making them feel heard, and empowering them to take charge of their health. Every time I leave this event, I feel even more inspired and motivated to grow as a nurse. My cup is full, and I can’t wait to continue being part of this work!”
