Marie Betcher Marie Betcher BSN, RN

I am a Registered nurse with 37 years of experience. I spent 4 of those years working in Hospice.
I found out of all areas that I worked either in or out of the Hospital.

Hospice and the end of life needed the most education. I created my Podcast Hospice Explained based on that need for education.
