"Almighty God, Divine Healer of all, Grant me, Your handmaiden, strength and courage in my calling. Give to my heart compassion and understanding. Give to my hands skill and tenderness. Give to my mind knowledge and wisdom. Especially, Dear Lord, help me always remember the true purpose of my vocation, that of selfless service and dedication to the weak and despairing in body and spirit." -Nurse's Prayer
