THE HEART OF A NURSE E-BOOK

The author has compiled her best thoughts sent in a collection of emails to students at all levels over several decades. These messages were first created to teach beginning students about their own emotional needs as nurses and ways to meet these needs. Later, more content was created for mature, practicing nurses who also needed soul food during their post-professional and graduate education. Lastly, nurse educators and nurse leaders need encouragement to build the emotional strength of their students or staff, as well as caring for their own well-being.

 

Since these messages make the best impact in small doses,  nurse educators and leaders are encouraged to copy and paste individual entries into an email to their students or staff. Alternatively, copy and share the entire free book to whomever may benefit from reading the material. The content is not limited to nurses, although geared to that audience. The author offers this content as a gift to all.
