Join us as Karen A. Daley, President of the American Nurses Association, shares her journey from clinical nurse to patient and advocate. Daley will discuss the importance of caring for patients holistically from the perspective of caregiver and health care consumer. She will present a broad view of health that transcends the strictly physical, encompassing the psycho-social-economic dimensions of wellbeing as well as addressing the limitations of the current health care system.
