Why I Became A Professional Health Care Advocate
30 years ago when I was working at my first hospital, I remember quietly suggesting to a patient that she should have her scheduled surgery done somewhere else. Even though I was only a CNA at the time, I already knew how to identify problems and felt compelled to speak up. In 1994 I became a nurse. I'm still an RN but I concentrate on advocating, communicating, and educating about the importance of knowledge in healthcare choices.
