Virginia Henderson, 1980:
"Whatever the role of future nurses, however I cannot believe that the essence of nursing, or basic nursing care, will ever be seen as anything less essential to the welfare of the human race. Not until human beings are born, live, and die in an independent state- and not until the special knowledge and skill of the nurse becomes common knowledge and skill, can we abandon what we think of as basic nursing care."
These sentences of hers enlighten me who recently been struck in some dilemma.
