I've been a nurse for over 40 years (of course, I was a child when I entered nursing school) - and I wanted to share some experiences about nursing and being a teacher.<br /><br />Nursing has been my passion since I tried to give my first pet "a shot" and it remains my passion today.<br /><br />I'll be making entries now and then when something funny happens or when I have an inspiration.<br /><br />Hope you enjoy my blog.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/34689188-1250234475677279441?l=healthcarework.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Connie Rockstad, MSN, RNnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34689188.post-1158683006322085722007-05-17T09:20:00.000-07:002007-05-22T13:31:03.183-07:00As more and more people choose to work in healthcare because of job security and wages, we decided to listen to a few professionals in the healthcare field, and see what they have to say. What follows is a blog of the ups and downs of entering the healthcare professions. Readers can make comments to any post. Reminder: Inappropriate comments will be edited and/or deleted.
