I became a member only a few days ago (June 26, 2001). The first time I checked out these bulletin boards, I read a poem that really captured the nursing shortage and its effects on us, the nurses. It was written by a nurse from Canada and was called "
I Apologize in Advance". The nurse was apologizing for all the things she was unable to do for her patients because of what she needed to do for others. I didn't bookmark it and now I'm spending a lot of time trying to find it again. If anyone out there can help me, I'd be forever grateful.
