title: Nursing in Canada: a profession.
abstract: The headlines scream out: "Hospitals alarmed as disgruntled nurses flee profession". "Living with death; the strains of daily tragedy feed chronic shortage of nurses". "Ministry should encourage alternative health care". "BC nurses set to withdraw services". As the provincial health care system falters and nurses, the very core of health care, flee the profession, politicians scramble to find answers. And so is Janice Kopinak, who takes a deep look at the current nurses' revolution and sees a glimmer of hope for change.
