Yet nurses cross these boundaries to provide effective care. When we do confront these boundaries, we experience frustration, challenge and even anger. If we overcome these difficulties, we become better nurses.&nbsp;We are looking for stories where students confronted a boundary and came out the other side a better nurse.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Six winners will receive $2,000 awards. The written submissions may be fiction or non-fiction, prose or poetry. Stories\u202fultimately will be shared online, published in a booklet and considered for integration into curriculum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a
