What Attracted You To The Field of Nursing?
Work At Home Opportunities

Last First Name: Richardson Mark
License degrees: RN
E-mail Address: mdr123@juno.com
City: Houston
State: Texas
What kind of nursing do you do: Public Health
Website: too soon to tell
Nationality: American
How many years have you been practicing as a nurse: 16 years


Professional organizations you belong to: TNA Texas Nursing Assc
Would you recommend the field: Sure. Nursing evolves and it needs people.
Employment changes in career: 7
Reason for the change: Relocation
If you lost your job tomorrow how easily do you feel you find new employment: To get the kind of position that I want it would be more difficult than getting a position just to have a job.
In how many years would you like to retire: twenty years
Have you started any type of retirement fund: Yes
Would this travel : Yes
Do you feel the availability of Patient Educational Materials on the WWW would be beneficial: Yes


Nursing School you attend if applicable: TCU - Texas Christian University - BSN
Where do you work: Service Agency
Do you carry a personal malpractice insurance policy why or why not: No. No particular reason. The more money that is available the more money you could be sued for
Your most pressing concerns with the profession and healthcare: Nursing has traditionally been too task-oriented. When nursing academia introduced the nursing process to facilitate reason and order in our nursing care we proceeded to view it as more paper and responded by making it into check lists and multiple choice or short answer events. We missed the point. Now as a result of this task-orientation and with the advent of managed care and all that THAT implies we find our tasks being performed by a host of technicians and others who learn how to do tasks not when and why. I think nursing missed its golden opportunity to be professionals when it rejected reason for instruction education for training. Also see last weeks New York Times article on errors and personal liability. If nurses cant see themselves as part of a broad system then they end up worse than proverbial cogs in a wheel they end up as cogs without a wheel in which to function efficiently. I see these two phenomena as part of the same issue.
What attracted you to the field of Nursing: I thought it would be an exciting place to use my intellect.

Favorite food: ramen noodles
Personal or favorite Quote: I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent
Qualities you admire in your friends & loved ones: Ability to see more than one side of an issue
