Book excerpt: Travel nursing is a great way to make a living while traveling around the United States, but the path to mobile healthcare is cluttered with fear and apprehension. People are scared that they are not going to get that elusive first assignment. People don't understand bill rates, VMSs, MSPs, cancellations or contract negotiations. Then you have the tax laws which really send people into a tailspin. It is just not right that nurses have to go into the world of travel nursing with blinders.Kay started travel nursing 15 years ago when there was one book out and two forums, and three websites for information. Times have changed, and so has the information world. Today there is grundle of websites to help travelers out, but how do you know which ones will give you reliable and trustworthy information. Kay has spent the last ten years teaching recruiters what travelers want in a company and teaching travelers what they should expect while out on the road. She is a leader in this industry and a vital member of the travel nursing community.Whether you're an experienced or a newbie traveler, this is the most comprehensive book on travel healthcare. Epstein not only teaches on the basics of finding great assignments but goes further into explaining the travel company structure, the art of negotiating contracts, compact states, the Joint Commission, NATHO, BKAT testing and PBDS testing. This is the only book series that has full chapters on Allied Health and LPN/LVN travel along with traveling with pets, homeschooling, and traveling in an RV. Again this year we will have a chapter on working and volunteering in foreign countries by Aaron Highfill, and Joseph Smith brings you the most updated Travel Tax information. Since 2007 every edition of Highway Hypodermics (the book) has gone to #1 on Amazon, beating out other books published by such names as including Mosby, Lippincott, the American Heart Association, and Tabers. Don't find your self-spinning around confused. Get this book and find out how we provide the roadmap for today's traveling nurse. Take the fear out of trying to get your travel healthcare career on the road.

Download or read book A Nurse s Story written by Tilda Shalof and published by McClelland & Stewart. This book was released on 2010-02-05 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The team of nurses that Tilda Shalof found herself working with in the intensive care unit (ICU) of a big-city hospital was known as “Laura’s Line.” They were a bit wild: smart, funny, disrespectful of authority, but also caring and incredibly committed to their jobs. Laura set the tone with her quick remarks. Frances, from Newfoundland, was famous for her improvised recipes. Justine, the union rep, wore t-shirts emblazoned with defiant slogans, like “Nurses Care But It’s Not in the Budget.” Shalof was the one who had been to university. The others accused her of being “sooo sensitive.” They depended upon one another. Working in the ICU was both emotionally grueling and physically exhausting. Many patients, quite simply, were dying, and the staff strove mightily to prolong their lives. With their skill, dedication, and the resources of modern science, they sometimes were almost too successful. Doctors and nurses alike wondered if what they did for terminally-ill patients was not, in some cases, too extreme. A number of patients were admitted when it was too late even for heroic measures. A boy struck down by a cerebral aneurysm in the middle of a little-league hockey game. A woman rescued – too late – from a burning house. It all took its toll on the staff. And yet, on good days, they thrived on what they did. Shalof describes a colleague who is managing a “crashing” patient: “I looked at her. Nicky was flushed with excitement. She was doing five different things at the same time, planning ahead for another five. She was totally focused, in her element, in control, completely at home with the chaos. There was a huge smile on her face. Nurses like to fix things. If they can.” Shalof, a veteran ICU nurse, reveals what it is really like to work behind the closed hospital curtains. The drama, the sardonic humour, the grinding workload, the cheerful camaraderie, the big issues and the small, all are brought vividly to life in this remarkable book.

Download or read book Critical Care written by Theresa Brown and published by HarperOne. This book was released on 2011-04-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Doctors heal, or try to, but as nurses we step into the breach, figure out what needs to be done for any given patient today, on this shift, and then, with love and exasperation, do it as best as we can."—from Critical Care "At my job, people die," writes Theresa Brown, capturing both the burden and the singular importance of her profession. Brown, a former English professor at Tufts University, chronicles here her first year as an R.N. in medical oncology. As she does so, Brown illuminates the unique role of nurses in health care, giving us a deeply moving portrait of the day-to-day work nurses do: caring for the person who is ill, not just the illness itself. Critical Care takes us with Brown as she struggles to tend to her patients' needs, both physical (the rigors of chemotherapy) and emotional (their late-night fears). Along the way, we see the work nurses do to fight for their patients' dignity, in spite of punishing treatments and an often uncaring hospital bureaucracy. We also see how a twelve-hour day of caring for the seriously ill gives Brown herself a deeper appreciation of what it means to be alive. Ultimately, this is a book about embracing life, whether in times of sickness or health. As she takes us into the place where patients and nurses meet, Brown shows us the power of human connection in the face of mortality. She does so with a keen sense of humor and remarkable powers of observation, making Critical Care a powerful contribution to the literature of medicine.

Download or read book The Nurses written by Alexandra Robbins and published by Workman Publishing. This book was released on 2016-04-19 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times bestseller. “A funny, intimate, and often jaw-dropping account of life behind the scenes.”—People Nurses is the compelling story of the year in the life of four nurses, and the drama, unsung heroism, and unique sisterhood of nursing—one of the world’s most important professions (nurses save lives every day), and one of the world’s most dangerous, filled with violence, trauma, and PTSD. In following four nurses, Alexandra Robbins creates sympathetic characters while diving deep into their world of controlled chaos. It’s a world of hazing—“nurses eat their young.” Sex—not exactly like on TV, but surprising just the same. Drug abuse—disproportionately a problem among the best and the brightest, and a constant temptation. And bullying—by peers, by patients, by hospital bureaucrats, and especially by doctors, an epidemic described as lurking in the “shadowy, dark corners of our profession.” The result is a page-turning, shocking look at our health-care system.
