Welcome to Nurse Central!

Hello blogger community and readers!

Welcome to Nurse Central, a place to discuss all things nurse-related. Nursing is a great career path and I'm here to support any potential newcomers to the profession, as well as connect with fellow nurses of all levels, specialties, and locations. Health care professionals, and nurses in particular, are a unique group of people that are bonded together by experiences very few other professions are exposed to. We have to see, do, and deal with things on daily basis that bond us together in a special way. And sometimes you want to talk about these experiences with others that can understand where you are coming from, but perhaps don't want to share it will all of your co-workers.

I am a Nurse Practitioner and have already created an informational website for NPs (http://www.worldofnursepractitioners.com/). But that site is primary only devoted to nurse practitioners and so far doesn't offer the opportunity for anecdotal discussions. I believe informal discussions or narratives of the job are sometimes just as important as the formal academic information. For those considering entering nursing, it just may be this information that gives you the the full insight into the career to make a decision. And Nurse Central is for all nurses, or soon-to-be nurses, or even those just curious about nursing.

I will share my thoughts, experiences, advice or tips, and I look forward to reading any comments or questions as we go along. Welcome!
