Biography
The new graduate nurse needs to be able to perform basic skills safely in an ever-changing health care system, know when to ask for help, and be accountable for the care provided. My hope is that the student is able to learn something unique from each nurse educator they encounter in shaping their commitment to providing high quality nursing care to the client, family, and community.
