About this title

Synopsis

A book to aid nurses in the transition from student to practicing nurse. The authors use humor and self-evaluation to present nursing career options and developmental opportunities. The reader is given an overall view of the nursing profession from past historical events to its present day image and the legal, ethical, political and on-the-job issues today's nurse must understand. Communication in the workplace, time management and organizational techniques, how to write an effective resume, interviewing tips and self-care strategies are among the sound career advancement tools covered.
