Fox Army Health Center Deputy to the Commander for Quality and Safety Dr. Margaret Bates credits her 42-year nursing career with those who contributed to her professional development, with one of them being her older cousin, who inspired her to become a nurse.
âEverything she said and did flowed from her warm and caring personality,â Bates said. âI knew I wanted to be just like her and do the same type of work.â
Bates started her career in the mid-1970s working at M.D. Anderson Cancer Institute & Hospital as a graduate nurse. While waiting on her board results, Bates had the opportunity to give chemotherapy treatment to a patient. She recalled the paralyzing fear of making an error in that moment but credits the staff and patients of M.D. Anderson for laying the foundation of her nursing career.
