Introduction

Welcome!  

This blog has been created as an assignment for a class that I am currently taking for a Masters degree.  I am an Oncology Certified Nurse, currently working in infusion services and going to school full time.  I am originally from the east coast but have been living in Truckee, California for 5 years.  I chose nursing as a second career after working as an environmental conservationist in the Carolina's.  I am interested in conducting research to provide evidence to support or refute the tradition that currently governs nursing and to help reform the delivery of health care in America.


The goal of this blog is to provide an environment in which I can discuss my ideas about health care and how we use available resources.  Specifically I will be looking at the internet, as required for this course, but I am also interested in how we use community resources in delivery of care.  My passion is in preventative/primary care.  I look forward to experimenting with ideas and receiving feedback from my readers.
