That's a good thing. One of the biggest sources of cost in health care is the number of easy tasks that doctors are only around to do which nurses are more than capable of doing. This lowers medical costs without affecting patient care outcomes.

With a 3 million strong nursing body in this country every American citizen should have access to a top rated high quality care. Its up to the nurses to shape the policy and be the driving force.
