Are you ready to remember what the real reason we’re all nurses is? This next guest, a second career nurse, tells it like it is. And guess what… it’s all about the patient experience!

A few take aways from our interview with Ed include:

• How owning up to error can make you a better nurse;
• Why it truly is a privilege to be part of the nursing profession;
• And what starting off in a restaurant can teach you about healthcare!

Ed Hunt RN, BCEN, BS was a science and politics journalist for 14 years before discovering EMS and Emergency nursing. He was night shift charge nurse of big city trauma center for 8 years before recently switching to a rural access ER at the beach. Ed also volunteers as an EMT, and has been married 24 years with two daughters, dogs, cats and horses. You can find out more and connect with Ed on Twitter, Facebook, and his blog.
