On this Oct 20th Issue, we are sharing a memorable quote from one of our most trusted members—RubyVee, BSN ... drum roll 🥁 please...

by Carol Ebert, MSN, RN
These times have been trying, and we certainly don’t see compassion being modeled from some of our political leaders, so once again it is up to us to be the modelers. As a nurse, I believe we have a compassion gene or we wouldn’t be in our nursing roles. But there are times when we just don’t have anything left to give. If this sounds like you, then read on.
