After IV

What are the unique opportunities and challenges of starting a career in nursing?

We're continuing our series on vocation transition with alumna and travel nurse, Valerie Parkins (Winona State University). Valerie explains some of the early challenges related to the transition to full-time work as a nurse, along with the unique ways God is inviting her to partner with him as she cares for vulnerable populations (and their loved ones) in the NICU and PICU.
