Inventiveness, ingenuity, and innovation in nurses

Nurses change the world every day, yet seldom do they come into the spotlight for their actions. We place scientists, celebrities, inventors, and athletes upon the pedestal for their contributions to humanity's good-most people can name a famous figure in each of these categories. But challenge someone to name a famous nurse, and they'll struggle. Nurses check our pulses, draw our blood, and care for us when we're sick. But beyond all that, they also create equipment that saves lives and makes living more pleasant.
