Danielle LeVeck is a nurse and she's the secret angel behind her insanely engaging Instagram channel (@nurseabnormalities). On average, each of her posts receives more than 100 comments within the first 24 hours. As a nurse, Danielle started her career in cardiac critical care. She then transitioned to cardiac surgical critical care, ICU travel nursing, and medical-surgical ICU patients. A few years ago, she decided to share stories about these “nurse abnormalities” because every day, she is "in awe of how brilliant, instrumental, and extraordinary nurses are to healthcare. Becoming a nurse positively transformed my outlook on life and I hope to give back to the profession throughout her career."
