      What Attracted You To The Field of Nursing? The field of nursing attracted me in many ways. I found nursing to be a multi-faceted profession. I thoroughly enjoyed the mutual benefit of the patient/ nurse relationship. I am continually challenged to grow in my knowledge of medicine. I appreciated the financial security, schedule flexibility and diversity in areas of practice.

      What is your experience and background in Nursing? Critical Care Cardiac/Telemetry, Cardiothoracic, Medical-Surgical, Home Care

      How did you hear about the Nursefriendly, NursingEntrepreneurs.com?: Search Engine

      Professional organizations you belong to: National Alliance of Certified Legal Nurse Consultants

      What made you decide to start your own business? I was in a bad car accident last year. I am no longer able to provide hands-on care to patients. However, I was left with my mind and my determination to use it to the best of my ability. I have always loved law and saw this as the perfect opportunity.

      How many times have you changed employers in your career? I have only been a nurse for a few years. During that entire time I was employed for the same organization. Prior to that, I did office management.

      What specific qualities and traits do you feel make nurses especially qualified to operate a business? All of them – time management, organization, prioritization, communication, and compassion with a twist of fairness

      Do you currently practice as a nurse? If yes, in what type of setting? No – N/A

      Your most pressing concerns with the profession and healthcare: In many cases, the short staffing issues result in a lack of adequate care provided to the patients due to the extreme over-extension of the nurses and other healthcare providers.

      Other areas of interest and expertise: Management, criminal law, forensics

Amber continued her education by completing her Master's Degree in Nursing with an emphasis in Wellness Promotion and becoming certified as a Health Coach. From Hospital Nurse to Health Coach: During Amber's nursing career, she began to question her ability to help people in the hospital.

    Restless Legs Syndrome Foundation:"The Restless Legs Syndrome Foundation is a nonprofit 501 (c)(3) agency that is dedicated to improving the lives of men, women, and children who live with this often devastating disease. The organization's goals are to increase awareness of Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) - to - improve treatments, and, through research - to - find a cure. The Foundation was formed in 1990, when a few individuals came together around a kitchen table to encourage each other through their struggles with a disease that they finally had a name for - restless legs syndrome. Their common goal was to help others cope with RLS and to build awareness for unknowing thousands who were searching for help with the "creepy-crawly sensations in their legs". The legal nonprofit organization - RLS Foundation - was formed incorporated in 1992."

    Retained Objects in the OR:"I am a nursing student, I am doing an assignment on ethical dilemmas. If you were a nurse and you saw that a surgeon did not account for a suture after a patient had an operation, would you report this incident to the supervisor? one suture is still inside the patient, and the surgeon does not want the patient to know about this."

    Reverse discrimination in nursing leadership: hitting the concrete ceiling. Porter-O'Grady T., Nurs Adm Q. 1995 Winter;19(2):56-62.:"Discrimination has many facets. In nursing there is as much discrimination as there is in any other group. Reverse discrimination, that is discrimination toward men in nursing, is evident even though it is well hidden. There are many situations and opportunities for the minority group in nursing (men) to experience the vagaries of gender prejudice in the same concentration as women experience in their attempt to integrate in more male-dominated professions. It is valuable to take time to denote the characteristics of gender bias in nursing and to identify mechanisms for handling it."
