Nurses are not only on the front line when it comes to healthcare, they're also usually the provider patients see the most often during their stay at a hospital or even a clinic.
That highlights the necessity of providing health care. Ok, that's so obvious. However, the type of care is starting to matter. Treatment doesn't just involve the facts of the ailment, yet the holistic healthcare experience for the patient.

The simply act of caring improves not only patient experience, but empirically noted to speed up recovery.
of course there's a differentiation between offering a 'hotel' service at hospital, and offering holistic healthcare.
