To solve this word search puzzle, we need to find the hidden words from the list inside the grid of letters. The words can be written horizontally (left to right), vertically (top to bottom), or sometimes diagonally.

Here is the step-by-step solution to find each word:

1. NURSE: Look at the very first row at the top. The letters spell out C N U R S E X C.
2. HERO: Look at the second row down. It starts with H E R O.
3. CARE: Look at the third row down. The second letter starts the word: E C A R E P E M.
4. SKILLS: Look at the fourth row down. Starting from the second letter, it spells S K I L L S.
5. THANKS: Look at the sixth row down. It starts with T H A N K S.
6. KIND: Look at the last row at the bottom. Starting from the fourth letter, it spells K I N D.
7. SMART: This word is written vertically backwards (right to left). Look at the fifth row down. The letters are L L R O X K X R. Wait, let's look closer. Actually, look at the column on the far right.
* Let's re-examine for SMART.
* Row 5 ends in R. Row 6 ends in T. Row 7 ends in N. Row 8 ends in N. That doesn't work.
* Let's look vertically. Column 6 (counting from left): E, E, P, L, K, S, K, D. No.
* Let's look at Row 5 again: L L R O X K X R.
* Let's look at Row 7: H P C W W K I N.
* Let's look for SMART again. Ah, look at the 5th row, but read it backwards? No.
* Let's look vertically in Column 5 (the middle one roughly). S, W, E, L, X, K, W, I. No.
* Let's look at Column 8 (second from right). C, S, M, A, R, T, N, D.
* Row 3, Col 8 is M.
* Row 4, Col 8 is A.
* Row 5, Col 8 is R.
* Row 6, Col 8 is T.
* So we have M-A-R-T. We need an S before it.
* Row 2, Col 8 is S.
* So, vertically downwards in the second-to-last column, starting from the 2nd row: S M A R T.

8. HEALTH: This is usually the hardest one. Let's look for H.
* There is an H at Row 2, Col 1. Below it is E (Row 3, Col 1). Below that is A (Row 4, Col 1). Below that is L (Row 5, Col 1). Below that is T (Row 6, Col 1). Below that is H (Row 7, Col 1).
* So, vertically downwards in the very first column, starting from the 2nd row: H E A L T H.
