Leaving a Legacy of Caring

Over the past few years I have watched as perianesthesia and other nursing colleagues have retired. The number of years worked varies. The reasons for retirement are multifactorial. Common themes include the desire to travel when healthy, the need to care for a family member, the wish to grow hobbies and interests into full time practices, and occasionally because of illness or loss. Of course, a few people are just tired …tired of the pace, the pressures, and the changes in health care, seemingly occurring on a daily basis.
