Westfield Health Bulletin: Education, capabilities vary among nursing certifications
We celebrated Nursing Week last week. Given the importance of nurses in health care, the nursing profession itself, the education and roles are varied and can be confusing to the lay person. Roles can be clear or muddied in many situations and perceptions. Would a general want to be called a private, a ship captain be called a first mate, Babe Ruth mistaken for a batboy, a chef for a dishwasher?Let me make it clear that respect is due for everyone that gets up and goes to work in the morning in any profession or trade and has an honest work ethic. However, credit is certainly due for one who attains a higher level of education and other achievements in their field. Having been a nurse for 38 years, I have answered questions or educated people on the subject on a daily basis. So, here is a primer on who is who is the nursing world.
