We are humans and make mistakes, no doubt about that. But not taking the responsibility and correct or improve our practice is not only unethical but criminal. The one example in my nursing practice that I will never forget was a new grad. I dropped a pill on the floor and quickly picked it up; no one saw it, only me; I was in a hurry since I had more things to do. I could have given that medication, no one knew I dropped it, but for a second, I thought that if I could be dishonest with myself, how can I expect to be honest with others. I have never forgotten that experience. I threw it away and went to get a new one. Honesty, respect, and accountability define us not only as nurses but as human beings.
