title: The depth of this career.
abstract: Young nurses have a lot to learn from us older ones--and vice versa. We need to mentor each other and build each other up, not bring each other down. Let's stop the complaining and negative talk at work--the "stinkin' thinkin'." We have so much to share with each other--the stuff they never taught us in nursing school. This nurse's story reminds us that by helping each other, we help our patients too.
