There are many nurses out there that go above and beyond their call of duty to help others and especially their nursing community. Recently on Saturday, the S.C. Nurses Foundation Scholarships awarded a Palmetto Gold Award to 23 students.
Some of the honorees talked about their experiences and thoughts on nursing. BJ Roof who is a nursing administrator at Palmetto Health Richland talked about how people give energy, so a long as BJ is around people, he can do great things.
Marie Bridges gave some advice to younger nurses and told them not to become a nurse if they aren't willing to put 100 percent in to their work, but also offered advice to keep balance in their lives because you need time for family.
