ABSTRACT:
Nursing professionalism is the integrated belief, ideas, and values for nurses and nursing as a profession. Nursing professionalism encompasses specialized and systematic body of knowledge, as well as guidelines and standards for behavioral conduct in the profession. Being professional helps you to achieve high-quality results, while impressing and inspiring others and feeling good about yourself. Nursing integrates the art and science of caring and focuses on the protection, promotion, and optimization of health and human functioning; prevention of illness and injury; facilitation of healing; and alleviation of suffering through compassionate presence.
