An Open Invitation to Nurses

Do you have a fascinating story, a learning experience, a list of tips or news that you would like to share to other nurses? It could be a funny encounter with your favorite patient in the hospital, how you landed your dream job, guidelines on how to accomplish a nursing task, solution to a nursing conflict or dilemma, healthcare updates you learned from a conference you have attended, or a personal story that has greatly affected your profession.

Whatever it is, we are happy to announce an open invitation to all nurses who would like to contribute to this blog (perhaps even in exchange for back links and exposure) to share their stories!

It has always been Medicalbutler.com’s goal to provide an online learning and networking experience for all nurses to help them become more aware of the different updates in their profession and to encourage them to learn from other nurses. As more and more readers are becoming regular visitors of this site, I would also like to create a group of contributors who have great information to share and who are willing to take part in our mission to help other nurses.
