  2. Nurses The Hospital The Leader The Church All units work together for the health of its patients Each separate unit has a different role that contributes to the purpose of the whole. Romans 12:4- Body of Christ • Lead by serving • Make the hospital function correctly • Build relationships with their patients • Treat illnesses • Monitor vitals

  3. Think About What Jesus Did Brought spiritual and physical healing. His ministry is the people. Was the Ultimate Cure- John 3:16 Devoted his ministry to the sick people. Nurses Jesus • Help bring physical healing. • The career is the people. • Administer medicine to patients • All about hanging out with the sick people.

  4. Matthew 9:10-13 Later, Matthew invited Jesus and his disciples to his home as dinner guests, along with many tax collectors and other disreputable sinners. But when the Pharisees saw this, they asked his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with such scum?” When Jesus heard this, he said, “Healthy people don’t need a doctor—sick people do.” Then he added, “Now go and learn the meaning of this Scripture: ‘I want you to show mercy, not offer sacrifices.’ For I have come to call not those who think they are righteous, but those who know they are sinners.”

  5. Knowing Your People • You can't treat a patient unless you know their case. • You can’t go to work if you’re sick. • “The most important thing to the patients I am taking care of is my personal health.” OR "The most important thing to the people I am ministering to is my personal holiness.” • Sin is highly contagious. • Focus on your condition before you try to treat other people’s conditions. • Matthew 7:4- Beware of the Log

  8. From the Frontlines… "We often think of nursing as giving meds on time, checking an X-ray to see if the doctor needs to be called, or taking an admission at 2:00 a.m. with a smile on our faces. Too often, we forget all the other things that make our job what it truly is—caring and having a desire to make a difference.”- Erin Pettengill, RN "Go into medicine for the right reason. Don’t make it about the money---make it about caring for those who need your healing hands. If it isn’t in your heart, patients will feel it.” -Palma Iacovitti, Nurse
