Studying the ordinary to know the extraordinary.

摘要

There are 2 words that describe the nature of nursing, nursing practice, and thus oncology nursing. These 2 words are ordinary and extraordinary. The word ordinary sounds small, but this word may be the largest explanatory factor for all the good that happens when we as nurses give care to another person. Ordinary is a part of every patient encounter, and it is through this small sounding word that extraordinary can be recognized for what it is. In our practice, the one (ordinary) leads to the other (extraordinary).
