The story of nursing is complicated. It is woven into war, plague, religion, the economy, and our individual lives in myriad ways. In Taking Care, journalist Sarah DiGregorio chronicles the lives of nurses past and tells the stories of those today—caregivers at the vital intersection of health care and community who are actively changing the world, often invisibly.

I wrote this mnemonic guide as an audiobook first to help you remember pharmacology drug names and principles quickly. While in the classroom your professors might say memorization doesn't matter, but you can't bring outside material to the board exam, so for this test, you do need to work on memory training. You already know the consequences of failing a class or board exam, so let's make sure that doesn't happen by getting pharmacology organized in your head once and for all.

In Being Mortal, best-selling author Atul Gawande tackles the hardest challenge of his profession: how medicine can not only improve life but also the process of its ending. Medicine has triumphed in modern times, transforming birth, injury, and infectious disease from harrowing to manageable. But in the inevitable condition of aging and death, the goals of medicine seem too frequently to run counter to the interest of the human spirit.

In 1918, the world was still in the throes of the Great War, the deadliest conflict in human history at that point, but while World War I would be a catastrophic war surpassed only by World War II, an unprecedented influenza outbreak that same year inflicted casualties that would make both wars pale in comparison.

They never acted alone, but always in the spirit of camaraderie, patriotism, and for the good of our beloved country.

Due to horrible physical deformities, he spent much of his life as a fairground freak. He was hounded, persecuted, and starving, until his fortune changed and he was rescued, housed, and fed by the distinguished surgeon, Frederick Treves. The subject of several books, a Broadway hit, and a film, Joseph Merrick has become part of popular mythology. Here, in this fully revised edition containing much fresh information, are the true and un-romanticized facts of his life.

Reseñas editoriales
Florence Nightingale, the founder of modern nursing, presents her studies and guidelines on effective care for the sick. This is as much geared to the common person - specifically women, who she says all must care for someone else at some point in their life - as it is to healthcare professionals. Preventative actions like hygiene, comfort, fresh air, and diet that may now seem commonsense are looked at systematically as methods of aiding the reparative process. Elisabeth Rodgers' delicate British voice takes on a firm educational tone fitting the instructive material and the eminent woman’s undertaking. This is a well-thought, useful guide that rings true today for any person who cares about aiding the suffering of others.

"old nurse" from California
After practicing nursing for over 40 years I can only say I wish I had heard/read this work many, many years ago. It is such a clear guide to the basics of bedside nursing - a "job" hard to define because it encompasses so much science and so much common sense as described by Ms. Nightingale. I really enjoyed the emphasis on the importance of fresh air for everyone, especially the sick.
A must read for everyone who seeks or practices the art of nursing.

after over 30 years of nursing, this book still holds true. listen closely Florence is blowing my mind with her advice. Her comments about hospital greed and cleanliness are points every nurse should hear.

Brilliant reminder of how nursing can be done
Homeopathy, coffee enemas to relieve pain, mindful habits, conversation and conduct style, strong emphasis on open windows and other basic sanitary measures forgotten by the modern nurses and hospitals…. This Nurse is my inspiration! It should be among mandatory reading 📖 in the nursing education.

still applicable today
it's a little hard to listen to because it's so informative and clinical. however, I found it very informative and a well-defined explanation of the basics of nursing and what nursing really is. it would be a very good read for nursing students and brand new nurses to really define what our career really is about.
