The Unexamined (Nursing) Life

Minority Nurse

We generally don’t study the classics of philosophy in nursing school. Unless we encountered philosophy in high school, a previous time in college, or out of personal interest, we nurses may not frequently think about Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle, let alone Heidegger, Kant, and the rest.
