How do you see your practice contributing to the identity of trust and the profession of nursing?

Lk12:48 …From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who

has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.

Nursing care often requires the delivery of medications to patients. This carries a huge responsibility

because all medications have the potential for side effects, but failing to assess an individual’s risk

makes the drug more potentially dangerous. That is why a professional nurse administers or

supervises the administration of medications in the hospital. The nursing profession is consistently

rated the most trusted profession in the world. What is trust and why is this important in the nursing

profession? How do you see your practice contributing to the identity of trust and the profession of

nursing?

Write a 1-2 page scholarly paper (you must have reliable resources) on the concept of trust and

trustworthiness (fidelity), and think about what you have been given that empowers this ability to

demand of you.

Note: Definition websites, Wikipedia, etc. are not reliable resources. You are expected to examine

the concept from a biblical perspective in a scholarly journal or commentary.
