Excerpt: ... polite little men with but few words of English made me understand so easily the price of the wares. I could not keep my eyes from the women with babies strapped upon their backs, or, yet more strange, the children with still smaller children tied upon their backs. I kept wondering why the little serious-faced babies never seemed to move or cry. The clatter of the wooden shoes upon the macadamized roads, the bright sunshine and the clear blue sky, the sparkling waters of the beautiful harbor-- all these mingled sights and sounds seemed to make a fairyland for me, where I dreamed happily away the few hours at my disposal. Friends living in Yokohama had invited me to visit them, so finally I started in the direction of the Bluff where their home was ed. When the foot of the steep hill DEGREES the little man who drew me shafts of the carriage and said, ilk." I cheerfully obeyed, and "out of the jinriksha climbed beside rrn to the summit, whence I looked far out upon the great sea so recently crossed and exclaimed in the universal words of all travelers, "Beautiful Japan " After a few hours happily spent in the home of my friends, who accompanied me to the custom house and thence to the wharf, I embarked in one of the countless small, flat-bottomed boats, and was rowed silently over the still, dark waters to the steamer lying a mile and a half away. The journey from Yokohama to Kobe takes about twenty-four hours. The weather was fine but cold, and we had occasional glimpses of Fujiyama. It was eleven o'clock on Sunday morning when we landed, and a jinriksha quickly took me through the strange town to the home of friends, where I received a most hearty welcome. I spent a few days in Kobe and then went to Kyoto, where I was to begin my work

This book was released on 2013-02-25 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of true narratives reflects the dynamism and diversity of nurses, who provide the first vital line of patient care. Here, nurses remember their first "sticks," first births, and first deaths, and reflect on what gets them though long, demanding shifts, and keeps them in the profession. The stories reveal many voices from nurses at different stages of their careers: One nurse-in-training longs to be trusted with more "important" procedures, while another questions her ability to care for nursing home residents. An efficient young emergency room nurse finds his life and career irrevocably changed by a car accident. A nurse practitioner wonders whether she has violated professional boundaries in her care for a homeless man with AIDS, and a home care case manager is the sole attendee at a funeral for one of her patients. What connects these stories is the passion and strength of the writers, who struggle against burnout and bureaucracy to serve their patients with skill, empathy, and strength.
Download or read book America s First Trained Nurse written by Linda Richards and published by Diggory Press Limited. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1872, Linda Richards was the first student to enrol in the first class of five nurses in the first American Nurse's training school. This school was run by Dr. Susan Dimock, at the New England Hospital for Women and Children in Boston. Linda describes her nursing training: "We rose at 5.30 a.m. and left the wards at 9 p.m. to go to our beds, which were in little rooms between the wards. Each nurse took care of her ward of six patients both day and night. Many a time I got up nine times in the night; often I did not get to sleep before the next call came. We had no evenings out, and no hours for study or recreation. Every second week we were off duty one afternoon from two to five o'clock. No monthly allowance was given for three months." Upon graduating one year later, aware of how little she still knew as a nurse, Linda began her quest to acquire more knowledge and then pass this on to others by establishing high quality nurse training schools. As part of her quest, Linda Richards consulted with Florence Nightingale in England, and was a resident visitor in training at St. Thomas's & King's College Hospitals, London, and also the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary. Returning to the U.S.A. with Miss Nightingale's warmest wishes, Linda Richards did great pioneer work founding and superintending nurse training schools across the nation. She then went onto do the same in Japan. This is Linda Richards' fascinating story.
