simply didn't exist just a few short years
ago. That's exciting news! This dramatic
change heralds the wealth of new opportunities
opening up in the field of nursing. No longer
are nurses limited to hospital-based inpatient

in such fast-expanding areas as home care,
community health, other outpatient sites,
long-term care, schools, nursing management
as well as hospitals and ambulatory care
settings."
