Assignment: Both parts below into one APA paper
Part 1: Continuing Education (Part 1 should be at least 750 words and include 2 outside references plus the textbook.)

Part 2: Future of Nursing (Part 2 should be at least 1000 words and include 2 outside references and the textbook.)
Review the author’s vision in the textbook (Chapter 25), of the future of nursing and complete your own research to include the Institute of Medicine’s (IOM) report.
