Currently, XYZ General Hospital experiences a large turnover of nurses. In addition to GNs turnover, the experienced nurses are also leaving the bedside for advanced practice roles.

Moreover, the vision of the hospital is to improve the patient experience through the delivery of high standards of care ("About us," 2015).

Gaby Rodriguez’s The Pregnancy Project is a memoir that focuses on the high rate of unexpected teen pregnancies in low income, poverty-ridden areas.

One of those things is the fact that the name Premarin, actually stands for Pregnant Mares Urine. Women are really ingesting horse’s urine. The goal of…
