Courage

You must have courage to be a healthcare worker in the OR.

You must have courage to tell a doc what no, he shouldn’t do that.

You must have courage to tell your coworkers that no, they shouldn’t do that.

You must have courage to say no when you really don’t want to but you are being pressured.

You must have courage to tell yourself no, that would not be wise.

You must have courage to tell your boss when things are going awry.

And, you must have courage, no matter who  you are, to write up a surgeon for using the device in a manner it was not meant to be used.

You must have courage to back up the rep when they are telling the surgeon they are doing it the wrong way.

Courage.

It sometimes takes many voices to make a change but it should start with you.
