Download or read book Cuckoo s Nest Revisited written by Heidi Mayer and published by . This book was released on 2005-04 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young Registered Nurse, not long out of her training years in a large, busy county hospital serving a major U.S. city, begins her day in the acute locked psychiatric ward of a smaller county hospital nearby. While she knows, in general, what to expect, the details that will emerge over the next eight hours are as yet not revealed. What follows, taken from the notes in her journal concerning that day, reflect the vast array of tragedies, great and small, the triumphs, the hopes, and the disappointments of a representative sample of the 20% of American citizens who will, during their lives, experience similar events that will cause them to spend time in such a setting. Events like suicide attempts, incest, murder, profound unhappiness, entrapment by mind-wrenching drugs, failed loves, and bizarre behavior, not confined to the patients alone, that set people apart from their fellows, along with hope and the earnest wish for a better life. This book, all of it true - though the names of the actors have been disguised - describes a burgeoning problem: what is, sometimes loosely and inaccurately, termed "mental illness" and modern attempts to deal with it. Many of them challenge our best efforts to define what is, and what is not, "normal." Their numbers are growing; the cost of their care takes a huge portion of health expenditures. Solutions are far from being at hand, yet those solutions are a measure of our humanity. Some of the people you will meet here are your friends and neighbors, your family and, just possibly, you yourself.
