Happy Birthday Florence Nightingale!

While we are Advanced Practice Providers in our role, we are all still nurses at heart.  Our role of diagnosing, managing and prescribing medications is in addition to the nuturing, caring, and educating role of a nurse.  The times ahead are uncertain in health care, so I leave you with a quote from Florence Nightingale:

“Let whoever is in charge keep this simple question in her head (not, how can I always do this right thing myself, but) how can I provide for this right thing to be always done?”

― Florence Nightingale, Notes on Nursing: What It Is, and What It Is Not   

Happy Nurse's Week to all!
