BC Children's Hospital Nurses Swim 300 Strokes
Résumé
At the BCORNG 15th Biennial Conference held in Victoria, BC in March 1996, those attending the opening ceremonies heard Bob Lord speak about the value of completing small achievable goals and the role these individual achievements play in pursuing and attaining greater objectives.
Nine nurses from the BC Children’s Hospital Operating Room registered for the March, 1996 Cana- dian Nurses Association (CNA) Certification Exam in Perioperative Nursing. This was done with some trepidation since few of these nurses had written credit examinations recently and some had minimal experience with multiple choice exams. In addition to the obvious exam-related stress there was also tension associated with placing one’s practice of many years under scrutiny. After all, the mean nursing practice of our group was around 25 years.
