, ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Maria Youtman MSN BSN RN
Words are very powerful. They can either inspire you to greatness or
make you feel like crap. This is why it’s best to choose the words you hear
and the principles you believe. After all, we are all given a choice ever day:
to wallow in self-pity or push ourselves to achieve great things despite our
imperfections.
“Maria Youtman, MSN, BSN, RN, earned her bachelor of science
degree from Penn University, and her Master of Science in Nursing from
Johns Hopkins University. She has 10 years of nursing experience and 6
years of experience as a clinical nurse specialist. For the past Three years,
she’s overseen nursing care in writing medical articles, books, and more.”
Maria had a three years of private clinical education and writing through
various websites, she intended to move on one step to have a web
community source, whatever she inspired, write, and edit, one place can
gather all the efforts made.
Nurses are no exception. One’s success in the nursing profession is not
determined by how much theoretical knowledge a nurse possesses, but how
resilient you are to apply everything you’ve learned–and that includes the
principle of caring.
