An engaging book tailored toward Nursing Associates. Nursing Associates often do not see themselves as leaders – however, after engaging with the book most of our students saw themselves as leaders within their teams. I believe the book will demystify the false belief that Nursing Associates are not leaders. -- Boikhutso Shianyana
