    THE EVERYTHING NEW NURSE BOOK

    Dear Reader,

    You have chosen a fine and noble profession. It will bring you great joy and satisfaction, and you'll experience your fair share of frustration as well. Nursing is a demanding and rewarding profession that is facing, many challenges. There is a tremendous shortage of nurses and it is only going to get worse before it gets better. This will make your job harder and pose many difficulties for you, but it's nothing that you cannot weather.

    This book is about all the things you didn't learn in school. There is only a little bit of theory to show you how to put it to use and make it work for you. I have drawn on my own experiences and those of many wonderful colleagues whom I have had the pleasure to know to provide you with some tips and helpful hints to survive your first year as a nurse.

    I wish you all the best in your new career, and I hope that you find great success and happiness along the way.

    Acknowledgments

    I have many people to thank. First, I want to thank my family my husband Tim and my children Amy, Rob, and Becky, and our extended family of children Heather, Dana, and Chase for their love, devotion, and help throughout the writing of this book. Many thanks to my mother, who has always been my biggest fan and most honest critic. And to the girls who have encouraged me to reach beyond my comfort zone and follow my dreams.

    Thanks to all the many wonderful nurses I have known and worked with over the years. You are all part of this book and part of who I am as a nurse. Thanks so much to the rest of my family and friends who have encouraged me and supported me in this effort in so many ways. And to Barb Doyen, my agent, who sought me out and helped me all along the way even through emergencies and craziness. Thanks so very much to all of you!!

    Top Ten Things for New Nurses to Know

    Nursing is one of the noblest professions.

    Nursing involves a process of lifelong learning.

    Once a Nurse; Always a Nurse.

    Nursing is a profession and not a gender.

    Nursing combines the art of caring with the skills and technology of math and science.

    Nursing is one of the most physically and emotionally demanding jobs.

    Always set the bar high; expect professionalism.

    If you've burned out, you just need to find another niche as a nurse.

    The present nursing shortage isn't going to be solved entirely by recruiting more nurses.

    Nurses make a difference in someone's life everyday and are masters at the fine art of caring!

    Introduction

    Picture 7 Welcome to the world of nursing. As you embark on your new career, know that you have made a wise and wonderful choice to give of yourself to help make a difference in someone's life every day.
