Nursing and their community
Before I start on how nurses have their communities, I am first going to start on what community is. Community is “a social, religious, occupational, or other group sharing common characteristics or interests and perceived or perceiving itself as distinct in some respect from the larger society within which it exists” this means that a community can be anything.

She said, we tend to treat our patients like our family members, we tend to make them feel as much close to home as possible so that they can recover much faster and have a speedy recovery. Nurses tend to also create a community with the patent. They try to make the patient feel like home in order for them to provide the best care possible.
