| DO "NURSES EAT THEIR YOUNG"? NEW KEYNOTE ANNOUNCED (Jan 12/11) - The expression "Nurses eat their young" is so far removed from our idea of the caring and nurturing nurse that we shudder to think it could possibly be true. But the truth is, nurses are hurting each other. Only by understanding the origin and reasons for our behaviors can we even begin to create the healing environment that is so desperately needed in nursing - for ourselves, as well as our patients.
Our newest Keynote is “Healing Nurse-to-Nurse Hostility” with Kathleen Bartholomew at our 2012 CLPNA Spring Conference.
