Hello,

I am an RN working on my BSN. My assignment is to interview in person or via email a nurse educator. I am not sure I will be able to catch up with the nurse educator at work today - its Monday in the ER - no time! If anyone could answer the following ?'s for me that would be great?

Was there someone/something in your life that influenced your decision to be a nurse/nurse educator?

Do you mostly educate staff or patients?
