"Patients and their families should always feel they can trust their healthcare professionals. As an LPN, I will be direct and honest since I know that everyone appreciates transparency and authenticity. I want people to feel they can be honest with me, and that I will be honest in return. This honesty is crucial in building a trusting relationship."

"Not everyone trusts easily. I believe it is better to under-promise and over-deliver. What I mean is, I would rather go above and beyond what has been asked of me rather than to tell a patient or coworker that I am going to do something and not follow through with it. Personal accountability is crucial in building trust with others."
