Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse, Nurses for a Healthier Tomorrow:"The need for psychiatric mental health nursing has its roots near the end of the 19th century when it was believed that patients in mental hospitals should receive nursing care. Psychiatric mental health nursing has since come a long way, with psychiatric-mental health content incorporated into all diploma and baccalaureate nursing programs. As new needs for services developed in the health care arena, the role and function of the psychiatric-mental health nurse expanded, leading to advanced practice registered nurses in psychiatric-mental health nursing (APRN-PMH). Psychiatric-mental health nurses are a rich resource as providers of psychiatric-mental health services and patient care partners for the consumers of those services."
Sonya Abdul-Rahman, RN, Nurse Educator, Nursing Entrepreneur, New Jersey Nurses:"Provides educational tutoring for student nurses of RN and LPN programs. Our primary focus is to assist nursing students to develop study and organizational skills for successful passing of nursing exams and the NCLEX licensure exam."

Bykowski, David, Nurse Entrepreneur, Texas Nursing Entrepreneurs:"I have a great interest in holistic medicine I am questioned many times as to why I sell products My answer is simple
to spread the holistic approach You may ask how selling products spreads
the holistic approach Well I have found that I can preach holistic philosophy
all day long and accomplish very little but if I can change a persons life
via the use of a natural substance not only have I won them over but all
the people they share their joy with. Thus I find selling products is more
effective than merely preaching the benifits of holistic health." ****************************************************** Virginia Duffy PhD, RN, CS, NP-PMH, Psychiatric http://www.nursingentrepreneurs.com/duffy/ ******************************************************
Elaine Gaither, RN, Energy From Within, LLC:"Elaine has years of experience in adolescent psychiatric nursing, Youth Ministry, and wellness coaching. However, her most rewarding role is being a Mom to her two sons, Andy age 25 and Tony age 20. To say that she comes from a "been there done that perspective" is an understatement. During the challenging times, she remembered to implement the healing powers of humor, creativity and play. Elaine has learned the
value of being open, being flexible and seeing things in a new perspective. Her humor allows her to reframe situations in a positive light and the ability to step aside from situations into a larger context of lessons and opportunities." ******************************************************
