As an emergency department nurse, I compete fiercely with time every day, trying my best to fight for every rescue opportunity for patients.

In this fast-paced environment, time is like an extremely precious source of life, and every second of delay may mean the difference between life and death. Therefore, I always maintain a high degree of vigilance and extraordinary quick reactions to ensure that patients can receive timely treatment.

I still remember that ordinary and extraordinary day. I was busy working as usual. In an instant, an ambulance roared into the hospital, and a young man was rushed into the emergency room.

His breathing was as rapid as a candle in the wind, the pain in his chest was like torture, his whole body was soaked with sweat, and his condition was extremely critical. My colleagues and I immediately took action and started a fierce battle with death. We quickly connected him to an oxygen tube, established intravenous access with difficulty, and at the same time conducted intense electrocardiogram monitoring and blood tests.

However, challenges came one after another. The patient's vital signs were extremely unstable, his blood pressure dropped sharply, and his heart rate was arrhythmic. It was like a fire in the strong wind that might be extinguished at any time. The fluctuation of every indicator is like a heavy hammer hitting our hearts, making our hearts tense.

Time was tight, so we quickly contacted the cardiovascular physician and paid full attention to the patient's vital signs and surgical progress. Our heartbeat seems to be closely connected with the patient's heartbeat, and every fluctuation involves our highly tense nerves. The surgery was long and difficult, like groping in the dark, with every step filled with unknowns and risks.

After several hours of hard work, the patient's heart's blocked blood vessels were finally restored to normal blood supply. We were slightly relieved and at the same time deeply proud of our unremitting efforts and tenacity.

At this moment, I deeply realized the responsibility and sacred mission of being an emergency department nurse. We are staunch defenders of patients' lives, and our speed and temperature determine their life or death. Every rescue operation is a thrilling battle. We must do our best and race against time to gain more time and hope for the patients.

However, emergency work is not always filled with joy and success. Sometimes, we face irreversible situations and face the grief and despair of patients and their families. This is the heaviest part of emergency work, and it is also the moment when we need strength and professionalism the most.

Once, an old man was sent to the emergency room due to a sudden cerebral hemorrhage. The patient's pupils were dilated on both sides. Although we went all out and tried our best to rescue him, his condition was too serious. Like a crumbling building, he eventually collapsed and passed away ruthlessly.

Facing the grief-stricken tears and painful faces of the family members, I felt as if my heart was being torn apart. But I know very well that I cannot show any vulnerability or sadness in front of them. I must provide them with solid support and warm comfort with a tough attitude.

I held the hands of the family members tightly and said softly: "Please forgive me, he is no longer suffering from the pain." The family members held my hands tightly back and said with tears streaming down their faces: "Thank you, thank you for your service." Everything he did. "At this moment, I understood that the responsibility of being an emergency department nurse is not only to save lives, but also to provide endless care to patients and their families when they need it most.

There are as many stories as stars in the emergency room, and every story makes me deeply feel the fragility and preciousness of life. As an emergency department nurse, I will rely on my unremitting actions to save everyone who is in urgent need of help.

I will use my professional knowledge and superb skills to provide patients with the highest quality care and treatment. I will devote my full love and endless patience to caring for and caring for every patient. I will use my speed and warmth to fight for every minute and every second of rescue time for the patient.

Because I understand that time is life, and every second may determine a person's life or death. I will use my own hands to firmly protect the health of every life.I am willing to dedicate everything I have to the health and happiness of patients. Because this is my sacred duty and my eternal mission.
