Top 10 Qualities of a Great Nurse
MonsterNursing.com staff
10. Respect

Respect goes a long way. Great nurses respect people and rules. They remain impartial at all times and are mindful of confidentiality requirements and different cultures and traditions. Above all, they respect the wishes of the patient him- or herself.
Great nurses respect the hospital staff and each other, understanding that the patient comes first. And nurses who respect others are highly respected in return.

I agree with cdnurse about using those points as a screening guide...unfortunately not all nurses out there meet even half of those qualities...
