The machines we invented to improve healing may actually be eroding real patient caring. To better facilitate healing, hospital nurses need to find ways to work with machines rather than for them. Have nurses become scribes for insurance companies?

After retiring from UT, she was medical director for RediClinic, a healthcare company with clinics located in grocery stores.
