government has decided to discontinue
the survey, at a time when the
Institute of Medicine has called for
better data collection about the
nursing workforce.

useful.

another age, June, July and August
signaled a time to slow down and stock
up on reading material for the beach,
mountains or back yard hammock. Though
the lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer
may not be what they once were, you
can still set aside a bit of time to
get lost in a good book--be it paper
or digital.
