#Nursing #Success Stories, Patricia Bemis, RN @patbemis, #NNBA2013#Nurseup

#Nursing #Success Stories, Patricia Bemis, RN @patbemis, #NNBA2013#Nurseup:"Love my work, hate my job. My journey as a nurse entrepreneur started in 1999. I was the typical aging nurse with the “love my work, hate my job” syndrome—loving my nursing work and hating my hospital job. I was suffering from burnout and making plans to leave the bedside. Today, I am a nurse entrepreneur and I love my work and my job. While my story is not unique, I feel it’s important to share my story."
