            <h2>Welcome to CareNurse!</h2>

<p>Nurses are short-handed, understaffed, and overworked.  We are only an accidental needlestick or body fluid splash injury away from exposure to deadly diseases.  We get aches and pains from lifting and tugging on people bigger than we are. We watch people die. We see families grieve. Often we work double shifts to meet the needs when staffing is overstretched.  We are tired.</p>
<p>Yet we love nursing -- most days. But we need support, and help to cope. That's what this site is all about.  Take a break at CareNurse.com.</p>
