The most common comment I get from nurses who want to become writers is, “I don’t have...
Very often when nurses first approach me about how to become a writer, they’re interested in writing to advance their personal “cause” or “issue.” For example, I’ve recently talked to a nurse who believed passionately in the value of case management and wanted...
As a nurse, you probably can reprogram many healthcare devices in less time than it takes for an IV pump alarm to sound.

Sometime in the spring of 2011 or 2012 (I honestly don’t remember now), I arrived home after a shift at the plastic surgery practice I’d been with for a year or so. It wasn’t a particularly tiring nursing job, but it could be frustrating at times. And that spring Friday was one...

Let’s be honest: Life is very challenging right now.
