Download or read book Journal From Iraq written by Deenie Laskey and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-05-11 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the summer of 1960, a ten-year-old girl was playing with her sister in the living room of their Midwestern family home. That was not so unusual. What was unusual was the image on the black-and-white television screen that caught her eye. It caused her to stop dead in her tracks. It was just a commercial, but she didn't want to miss a second of it! It was telling a story! Little did she know at the time, in many ways, it was telling her story. What she saw was the ship called SS Hope, a floating hospital ship. It traveled the globe with doctors and nurses to far-reaching destinations. Their mission was to give medical care to people where few others like to go. From that moment on, that little girl knew her destiny. God had a plan for her. She became a nurse, she joined the army reserve, and deployed to Saudi Arabia in Desert Storm, Kosovo, and Iraq. She went where few wanted to go; she saw what few wanted to see. Her passion was to take care of our nation's wounded heroes. Go with her as she journals her way through the frustrations, demands, failures, and successes in a combat support hospital to a war zone during Iraqi Freedom. Wisconsin nurse deployed to Iraq in 2006 with the 399th Combat Support Hospital. https://youtu.be/uPdET5nHnjk

Download or read book Nurses After War written by Mary Ellen Doherty, PhD, RN, CNM and published by Springer Publishing Company. This book was released on 2016-07-05 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on candid interviews with 35 nurses who were deployed for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, this is the first book to reveal the stresses and moral dilemmas they experienced as they transitioned back into everyday life. The nurses share their difficulties with family separation, clinical reassignments, post-traumatic stress disorder, the perceived stigma of seeking mental health counseling, and compassion fatigue. They describe how "doing nursing" in a war zone changed them personally and expanded their nursing skills, and how reintegration was more difficult than they had anticipated. In addition to serving as a personal account of the experiences,both individual and collective,of these military nurses, the book will serve researchers as a compelling example of qualitative, phenomenological, and descriptive research. Interviewees describe in vivid detail their homecoming, family adjustments, renegotiation of spousal and parenting roles, domestic and workplace challenges, and many other dilemmas posed by the reintegration process. They provide insights and thoughtful recommendations for changes to current military debriefing to improve the experiences of future wartime nurses. Encompassing all three branches of the military, the book also examines the differences between active duty services and reserve unit services, issues of substance abuse, the Veterans Administration, the burden of multiple deployments, and other common threads among nurses who served in Iraq and Afghanistan. KEY FEATURES: Provides vivid narrative accounts of nurses' reintegration experiences Delivers the first research study of nursing reintegration, which includes Army, Navy, and Air Force Nurse Corps officers following deployment in the Iraqi and Afghani Conflicts Demonstrates how a comprehensive qualitative nursing research study can be crafted into a highly accessible, compelling account Explores the personal and professional paths of 35 nurses returning from war Addresses the reintegration differences between active duty versus reserve status

Download or read book The Gift of Violence written by Matt Thornton and published by Pitchstone Publishing (US&CA). This book was released on 2023-04-11 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today's modern world, we are largely isolated from the kind of savagery our ancestors faced on a daily basis. Although violence was as natural to our evolutionary development as sex and food, it has become foreign to most of us: at once demonized and glamorized, but almost always deeply misunderstood. Our hard-earned and hard-wired instincts—our evolved and trained ability to survive and overcome violent encounters—have been compromised. Yet, as even a cursory look at news headlines or a police blotter will reveal, the threat of violent crime is ever-present, and those we've entrusted to protect us cannot always be relied upon. The Gift of Violence tells the story of this vulnerability and provides the average person with all the knowledge they need to reduce the likelihood of becoming a victim of violence and to increase their chances of surviving a violent encounter. Based both on the author's decades of experience teaching everyday people how to defend themselves and on a rational approach to the scientific data, The Gift of Violence offers clear, easy-to-remember lessons for people of all ages and abilities. It is designed to empower those who've been affected by violence or are concerned that they or their loved ones could be—in short, it was written to help good people become more dangerous to bad people. Every reader will be armed with the necessary knowledge to harness the power of violence for him- or herself—and, in the process, to be not just smarter and stronger but also safer.

Download or read book The Pull of Dreams written by T.R. Quiñones and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-04-23 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mankind was not meant to interfere with the nature of Dream Realm. But what is Dream Realm? Scholars of old could sense it, but not explain it. Plato touched on it in his Theory of Forms, but the best he could achieve was a dubious narrative. The Ancient Egyptians tried to catalogue it, but came up short in their Book of Dreams. The I Ching,the Chinese Book of Changes, came surprisingly close to pin pointing it, but its clarity was lost to the test of time. Its defi ning nature is Chaos and Enlightenment. Composed entirely from the sum of mankinds desires and the totality of his imagination, Dream Realm is potential unrealized. Where our creativity is born and nurtured. Where the constraints of our naivet is broken, allowing our minds to glimpse at what could have been. A Perfect Paradise. Dream Realm is the balance to our waking world. But in his hubris, mankind has compromised that balance. There are cracks and fi ssures along the wall that divide us. The pressure is building and the dam is about to burst. The fate of all that is, and all that might have been, has fallen on the shoulders of one man. Daniel. The Dream Warden.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emergency Medicine is not divided into specific areas of practice. Emergency room visitors come in all shapes and sizes, at any time of day or night, with a wide range of maladies. Emergency physicians need to become experts in diverse areas of medicine and to be able to make quick and informed decisions about patient care. A cornerstone of emergency medicine training is the constant drilling and re-drilling of simulated cases and clinical scenarios. This book offers a unique yet underutilized strategy for learning: a case-based approach from real patients and actual events. Each case provides the opportunity for learning essential clinical concepts. Focused exclusively on the needs of in-training emergency physicians and nurses, the book covers more than 100 common and unusual cases in emergency medicine. The procedures have been class-tested by the Stanford/Kaiser Emergency Medicine Residency Program.
