There are some powerful nursing videos out there. Could they be the beginning of a culture shift surrounding how nurses are seen by the public? Check out these four videos that honor the nursing profession. They give an entirely new meaning to the term "moving pictures." 1. A Carolyn Jones Documentary, The American Nurse "To Live, To Die, To Hurt, To Heal." These are the words that flash across the screen in this trailer for the long anticipated documentary, The American Nurse. Watch the trailer and then head here to see if there's a screening in your area. Is this film the beginning of a culture shift surrounding how nurses are seen by the public? 2. A Nurse I Am A Nurse I Am, sponsored by Cherokee Uniforms, is a tribute to nurses, told through the eyes of four recipients of the Inspired Comfort Award. Winners are chosen by judges who consider many applicants, all of whom were nominated by their peers for exceptional service, sacrifice and innovation. 3. A World Without Nurses Produced by Ausmed-Education for Nurses, this 3-minute, goose-bump-and-chills-inducing video elegantly illustrates what a world without nurses might look like. Watch and share. This is one for the public to see. http://youtu.be/XsjNXWIW28w 4. Inspirational Nursing Produced by I-Motus Agency, for the Royal College of Nursing Congress, this video features three incarcerated men who began to discover themselves, and heal for the first time, because of one nurse. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbaPWE9TuWw
