What I've LeaRNed is a nursing video that celebrates the wisdom of nurses, the strength and intelligence of nurses, the intensity of nurses and the grace and humor of nurses.
It is about nurses, for nurses, by nurses and features nurses, all of whom are on the nursing staff at UAB Hospital in Birmingham, Alabama, where the nurses will all tell you, "I am Not Just Another Nurse." |
