What do you think is the biggest change in nursing over the past decade?

Why do you think the patients are more acute and complex muffie?

Patients are more complex because most less complex things are done as outpatients now. Plus we have saved patients with conditions from which people in previous decades would already be dead. Think diabetics with more aggressive insulin regimens, dialysis and renal failure patients, cardiac patients who have implanted pacemakers and defibrillators etc.
