Nurses and physicians learning from each other

I enjoyed the article yesterday from Registered Nurse Theresa Brown in The New York Times Well column. She examines the relationship between nurses and physicians, and how both learn from each other. Nurses learn from doctors and younger doctors often learn from the experience and guidance of nurses. I thought the final quote was particularly pointed: "There’s always more to learn, and no matter how hard any of us try, there’s rarely enough time for one person to learn it all."
