If you have one piece of advice to give to other young professionals, what would it be?
Find ways outside of work to serve your community!

State regulators float new rules in hospital wars
Eliminating the certificate of need program for hospitals may have been the easy part, but how to license them in the future may be more complex.
Tallahassee health-care regulators on Wednesday started the layered process of reshaping the state’s certificate of need program, moving ahead to focus it on nursing homes, hospices, and institutions for individuals with developmental disabilities.
But the proposed changes to the CON rules are only the beginning of a two-step process for Florida hospitals, as the Agency for Health Care Administration simultaneously moves to change the licensure requirements for hospitals .
