• Jerry’s story – “Nursing is intelligent Caring.” I’d be in the story of nursing as beneficiary, participant, and evangelist. The result would be informed patients and families who know more and demand better; more competent, proficient, and expert clinicians, caregivers, and communities; and more positive outcomes for patients and families facing serious illness and care at end of life.
