A book for all nurses, but especially those who suffer from job dissatisfaction, compassion fatigue, moral distress, or burnout. Told from a first-person perspective, the work is based on research and is designed to provide practical steps for the nurse or nurses reading the book.
“Dr. Todaro-Franceschi calls us to look with open eyes, open hearts, and open minds at the good, the bad, the ugly, and the ugliest in health care so that together we can cultivate a healthcare world in which compassion prevails and our shared humanity is embraced… It is up to all of us to hold and safeguard each other in this sacred work. Dr. Todaro-Franceschi helps us in this mission through this extraordinary book.”
