Johnson and Johnson Nurse Educator 2009

[NurseEducatorBC]

I have been a registered nurse since age 22 and a man. At 22 my friends and family said a man can't be a nurse and I said watch me. I did a 3 year hospital RN program and graduated in 1982,subsequently a post RN BSN and my MSN so I could be a nurse educator. The first time I saw this video tears rolled down my cheeks. I showed this to my family and they went WOW look at you now. Thanks J & J and nurse educators everywhere for the recognition and this beautiful video. I'm humbled to be one.

This video is so great and accurate. I have been an RN for 20 years. I am a nursing clinical professor. I think of the educators that have inspired me and my practice is enriched because of them.

Some days, as a nurse educator, I wonder whether I make a difference and this video helps to let me know that I do!

Wow, As a nurse educator in a hospital, this almost brought me to tears. I love my job but never thought that most people even recognized the fact that we are indeed nurses. Thank you for such a tribute and I hope that all of my nurse educators from years ago have seen this to recognize them for all of their hard work and dedication.

My thanks to Eleanor Holloway, RN, and Arthetta Reeder, RN, who taught me over 35 years ago what it takes to be a nurse!
