"Students, new graduates, and experienced nurses need to share successes and challenges and blow off a little steam." says Mike Briddon, a Senior Managing Editor at HCPro. "We wanted to create new eye catching features and content that creates a real online community for that."

The innovative StressedOutNurses.com is aimed at filling a critical need for the growing nurse population.
