To the editor,

Speaking from my experiences in Nanaimo Regional General Hospital, I have found it to be very unprofessional. I have been in five different hospitals all in British Columbia.

The introduction of the computer has definitely altered the nursing profession, not for the better, I might say.

Good luck to the nurses, some of whom still have good patient relationships.

Barbara J. Newman, Nanaimo
