The title of this editorial is taken from a plaque that hangs in the office of one of the site manager’s within the health region in which I live. When I saw this quotation I immediately thought how well it suits the group of nurses I have had the opportunity to spend time with over the past several months.While gathering data for a rural research project, I have been given access to one of the most knowledgeable and hard working group of nurses in my health region. Those I have spoken with cover all facets of the rural health care industry i.e. acute care, long-term care, homecare, and public health. I have been made welcome in their work places, at their staff meetings, over lunches, and in their homes. The overwhelming response from these nurses is that they love what they do and they wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.
