"As a new graduate registered nurse, I find Annette Vallano's informative book, Careers in Nursing: Manage Your Future in the Changing World of Healthcare, to be encouraging and insightful. She provides a wake-up call for all nurses to open our eyes and see the changes in today's healthcare system, so that we can utilize our knowledge and professionalism to shape our nursing career paths."

--Jessica Ravitz, RN, BSN, BA

What a surprise! This book opened my eyes in a delightful, insightful way, to what is happening to nurses in today's healthcare industry. I found Ms. Vallano's insights and information invaluable as I contemplate a career move. Seeing myself in an entrepreneurial role is different for me, yet she makes an intelligent case for the benefits of doing just that. Her perpective in dealing with the changes facing nurses is new and refreshing. Defining the opportunity available to nurses today as never before. I think that this book will assist all nurses, those new to the field and those who have experienced downsizing, re-engeering, managed-care, etc.,. Bravo and "Mahalo" ( thanks)!

Although this book is intended as a guide to careers for the professional nurse, it provided for this lay person an unexpected insight into and a new appreciation of the wide variety of skills and areas of expertise today's nurses must have to compete in a complex and changing healthcare world.
