Before she became the legendary "Lady with the Lamp" healing soldiers in the Crimean War, Florence Nightingale shattered conventions as a pioneering nurse and reformer. Her seminal work Notes on Nursing, published in 1860, distills over a decade of her transformative insights and methods. This profound volume remains essential reading for all in the healing professions.Caring for ill bodies and minds requires more than medicine alone, Nightingale admonishes. She illuminates the vital role of nutrition, sanitation, cleanliness, ventilation, warmth, and managing the patient's environment in facilitating healing. Nightingale overturns common neglect of these essentials with keen observations from years studying disease statistics and death rates in hospitals. Her analysis of deficiencies in existing care sparked sweeping reforms that drastically reduced preventable deaths.Far ahead of her time, Nightingale recognized the power of psychology in healing. She insisted nurturing hope and calm in patients is as important as physical care in aiding recovery. Her wisdom reached even to directions for home nursing and architectural design of hospitals. Principles that seem obvious now were revelatory when Notes on Nursing was first published.This landmark work brims with Nightingale's characteristic insight, conviction, and concise style. She marshals irrefutable evidence, pungent examples, and sharp wit to convince both caregivers and families to implement essential reforms. Undoubtedly abrasive to the old guard of her day, Nightingale's deep compassion shines through as she urges priority be given to improving patient outcomes through better care practices.Notes on Nursing exemplifies Florence Nightingale's groundbreaking work elevating nursing to a respected profession and noble calling. This volume captures her visionary ideas and poetic pragmatism that profoundly influenced medicine and society. Two centuries later, it remains powerful and transformative reading.

Weight stigma is so pervasive in our culture that it is often unnoticed, along with the harm that it causes. Health care is rife with anti-fat bias and discrimination against fat people, which compromises care and influences the training of new practitioners.This book explores how this happens and how we can change it. This interdisciplinary volume is grounded in a framework that challenges the dominant discourse that health in fat individuals must be improved through weight loss. The first part explores the negative impacts of bias, discrimination, and other harms by health care providers against fat individuals. The second part addresses how we can 'fatten' pedagogy for current and future health care providers, discussing how we can address anti-fat bias in education for health professionals and how alternative frameworks, such as Health at Every Size, can be successfully incorporated into training so that health outcomes for fat people improve.Examining what works and what fails in teaching health care providers to truly care for the health of fat individuals without further stigmatizing them or harming them, this book is for scholars and practitioners with an interest in fat studies and health education from a range of backgrounds, including medicine, nursing, social work, nutrition, physiotherapy, psychology, sociology, education and gender studies.

In times of crisis, like the Covid-19 pandemic, nurse leaders must act immediately but also effectively. Previous disasters, emergencies, and healthcare concerns have taught us distinct lessons and forced managers to adapt, but how do you become a successful leader while battling an extreme crisis that brings new and fluctuating information every day?Nursing Leadership During Crisis guides nurse leaders from the Covid-19 pandemic to a mature perspective, integrating theoretical frameworks, ideals, processes, and reflections from those on the front lines. Drawing upon insights learned from the Covid crisis, authors Carolyn Miller Reilly, Barbara Kaplan, and Tim Porter-O'Grady provide a map of tools for a lifelong journey of development and assimilation of attitudes, skills, and behaviors to help readers establish their own leadership persona and better prepare them for future crises.
