"The Inspiration Nurse" Donna Cardillo Inspires a Growing Trend of Nurse Entrepreneurs

SEA GIRT, N.J., Sept. 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- As healthcare evolves to meet the changing demographics and health needs of the population, so too does the role of the nurse. While once regarded as "assistants" to physicians, nurses are taking on a more active role as entrepreneurs and savvy business owners. Many are self-employed as wellness coaches, care managers, wound care specialists, and legal nurse consultants. While others own and operate adult day service centers, sick child daycare, assisted living facilities, and more. And none are more passionate about the nursing profession or entrepreneurship than Donna Cardillo, RN, MA, CSP, president of DonnaCardillo.com, best known as The Inspiration Nurse.

Cardillo will be sharing an inspirational message, "Harness the Power of You!" with attendees. This conference is guaranteed to inspire nurses to tap into their highest potential while making a positive difference in the lives of others.

In addition to the keynote presentation at the NNBA Conference, Cardillo will also be presenting a pre-conference seminar on October 3 entitled "Career Alternatives for Nurses®" discussing the non-traditional career opportunities, including business ownership, available to nurses. This is followed by a weekend-long retreat in Ocean Grove, New Jersey at a bed and breakfast for experienced nurse entrepreneurs in November. 

As Cardillo states, "Nurses make great business owners. We are intelligent, great problem solvers, excellent communicators, creative, think on our feet, and are totally customer-service oriented. I'm proud to spread the message of the positive impact we are having and all we can do." 

Celebrating 20 years in business soon, Cardillo also helps other nurses to succeed through seminars, books, and DVDs, which include "How to Start Your Own Business and Consulting Practice" and "Learn to Speak with Style for Fun and Profit."

The education and experience gained from a career in nursing provides these business owners the intuitiveness and ability to succeed and with great support from nurses such as Cardillo, the growth is sure to continue.
