Private Nursing - Getting Back to Care “Every nurse was drawn to nursing because of a desire to care, to serve, or to help.” — Christina Feist-Heilmeier, RN People do not get into Nursing because it is an easy job, they get into Nursing because they care. They want to help and make a positive impact on the world one person at a time. By diluting that purpose, the healthcare system loses its effectiveness. It reduces patient safety and increases risk of medical errors.
