About this deal

Nursing is more than a career; it is a calling. Nurses are remarkable. Yet contemporary literature largely neglects them.” 1st chapter Secret Club All staff and students on placement in the NHS have access to a collection of Oxford Medicine e-books including over 20 titles for nurses and midwives such as: Though the ending was a bit abrupt and too neat, I liked it. It flowed naturally from the story and didn’t contort into a needless or unforeseen twist. The blurb seems to be taking the story in a very different direction from what it is. Nell is not the primary character for most of the story, which comes to us mainly from the pov of Marian and “Him”. Pg. 137 “Nurse bulling is a significant problem in many corners of the world, etc. Worldwide, experts have estimated that one in three nurse quits her job because of it, and that bullying—not wages—is the major cause of a global critical nursing shortage.”

Lara I admired for getting through her addcition, returning to the job she loved and continuing to be strong in the face of temptation. It was great to see her continuing to do well.Written by a doctor, and carrying a fair amount of humor, this book is very informative and discusses the four basic personality types when it comes to how people deal with change. Nurses have to deal with change on a daily basis, and this book can be an excellent tool to equip you not only to deal with change but to discover what personality type you are and how you can coexist with other personality types, as well. Also, it seemed to appear that there is a lot of drug abuse amongst nurses. It is a problem for sure, however, it is not as widespread as I felt this book made it seem. In fact, there are policies and procedures that make it very difficult to steal drugs. When I first became an RN that wasn't the case, but nowadays it is so much harder to take narcotics and get away with it.

The Nurse: A gripping psychological thriller with a shocking

This follows four nurses for a year and interviews alot of others... the way the narratives were set up with the POVs of the different nurses then the other stories and facts sprinkled throughout was well done and kept the book moving at a good pace that was never dull or un-interesting.A harrowing tale of misogyny and toxic masculinity, this suspense thriller describes every woman's worst nightmare.

CBT: Test of Competence 2021 - The Nursing and Midwifery NMC CBT: Test of Competence 2021 - The Nursing and Midwifery

This is an interesting insider look at nursing. It doesn’t seem intellectually rigorous, so I’d take it with a grain of salt, but it is compelling reading. For a reader not in the medical profession, it did make me aware of many of the issues nurses face. Readers... will find themselves guided by an excellent stylist and a first-rate mind."— Houston Chronicle year old nurse, Nell Sweeney has been missing for four days and her parents, Marian and Stephen are beside themselves with worry. While the cops are doing everything they can to locate her, unbeknownst to them, Nell is caught in a psycopath's macabre power game, where she is merely an expendable pawn. Interspersed with these four narratives are essays about various issues affecting nurses. These sections are informative: I had no idea, for instance, that nurses are regularly assaulted by patients and visitors (and sometimes even colleagues), to the point that American nurses have the third most dangerous profession, after police and corrections officers. And unlike those first two groups, nurses are provided with little protection, and physical assaults routinely go unreported and are not taken seriously by hospital administrators. Hospitals tend to focus on other numbers, such as patient satisfaction surveys (which by law can affect the funding they receive); but hospitals with higher patient satisfaction are often lower-performing in terms of medical outcomes, and vice versa.

PS: I loved Heman in my childhood. It broke my heart to see the hashtag #Ihavethepower being inspired from his comics and misused this way by the creeps. Bottom line is profits as usual, so staffing is kept at the absolute minimum. We are talking about life and death situations, where corporations crunch numbers weighing the possibility of a wrongful death suite against huge profits from understaffing. Here's an awful fact, Bureau of Labor Statistics report nursing is the third most dangerous profession, behind police and correctional officers! Nurses are bullied by doctors, if they report, they may lose their job, if they don't patients may die. Nurses are bullied by other nurses who rip apart inexperienced workers. There is even a term for this, "nurses eat their young." Laila Abdalla, Ph.D., is a career coach and advocate for individuals on temporary state assistance. She taught college and graduate courses in English and writing for 20+ years. Abdalla devotes her teaching, leadership, and career to equity, diversit... Nursing is an extremely rewarding profession, but it can be grueling, as well. This book is a great guide by a nurse for nurses on how to survive their first year. This book has become like a best friend to many first-year nurses, guiding them not only on the how-to’s associated with the first year but also providing encouragement for the rough days. The nurses don't even respect each other, the young and newly qualified ones suffering from verbal bullying, put-downs and deliberate` overloading with work by the older more experienced nurses. Then there's the deliberate exclusion of the not-cool by the cliques...

Sam, a new nurse who is a quiet introvert in a world that nurses sometimes "eat their own." --I hate that this happens but it honestly does. New nurses are automatically not trusted on the floor and must earn their stripes from nurses that have been doing this for years. And Juliette, an overweight and very hardworking nurse who gets excluded from the mean girl clique at the hospital. Yes, nurses do form highschoolish cliques-even though we are supposed to be in a helping field it still happens.Florence Nightingale is credited with inventing modern nursing, training nurses as healthcare professionals, proving the importance of sanitation and fresh air, and advocating for nursing as a vital profession. Dr. Jenna Liphart Rhoads describes Nightingale's book, the profession's first body of knowledge, as "a must-read for any nurse who wishes to truly understand the passion of Florence Nightingale." Crossing Doctor–Nurse Lines: How the Sexy-Nurse Stereotype Affects Relationships with Doctors and Patients Though Dan is a New Age writer and has a unique set of spiritual beliefs, the lessons he learned while trying to find his identity in life are still applicable, regardless of your religious or spiritual affiliation, even if that means no affiliation at all. The universal lessons he shares are thought-provoking and inspiring for everyone and nurses can gain a lot of wisdom from his thoughts and conclusions about life. Robbins does give an insight to nursing that you aren't going to hear about from your nursing teacher. She tells some of the behind the scenes secrets even when they are not flattering to the nursing field.
