This is a discussion posting from week one where we were instructed to rank our top 10 values.  I created a wordcloud attached for a visual representation of my values.

Hi everyone, my name is Niki I have been an RPN since 2015 and work on a Medical Floor in the Niagara Region.  I enjoyed this activity and found it easy to identify 25 values that stood out but difficult to rank 10.  My list is:  Communication, Trust, Empathy, Dependability, Humour, Openmindedness, Quality, Patience, Respect and Equality.  My word cloud is below.  The College of Nurses of Ontario(CNO) Ethics Practice Standard outlines seven values that are important to care – I recognize that some of my own values overlap (CNO, 2009).
