[9] I am not persuaded by Ms. Carl's other two arguments. First, she relies on D.C.Code § 2-3301.2(17)(C) (1994), a small part of a much larger statute regulating "health occupations" in general. This provision simply defines the term "practice of registered nursing" as it is used in the larger statute, outlining some of the areas in which a registered nurse's specialized knowledge may be applied. It offers no declaration of policy of the sort needed to support a public policy exception to the at-will doctrine.
