Cost and quality concern along with changing social and disease type demographics created the greatest urgency for the need for change. Caring for and paying for medical treatments for patients suffering from chronic conditions and bedridden patients.

There are transformative changes occurring in health care for which nurses, because of their love, their education, and the respect they have earned, are well positioned to contribute and lead.

The role of registered nurse (RN) in leading and being fully contributing member of the inter professional team.

In the early 20th century, the French Canadian microbiologist Félix d’Hérelle used a virus called a bacteriophage (“phage”) to successfully treat some diseases caused by bacteria, such as dysentery and cholera. Subsequent experiments with “phage therapy” yielded mixed results; however, and enthusiasm quickly waned—especially once antibiotics became available in the 1940s. The therapy is not currently approved in the United States. Phage therapy involves obtaining a pure culture of a disease-causing bacterium and exposing samples of the culture to different...
