This book provides a collection of stories that concentrate on nursing, that validates, educates and encourages those undertaking a career in nursing. In addition, this book also celebrates the amazing rewards that the unique career of nursing has to offer, for those who can find a way to persevere through the challenges. There is a high rate of burnout among nurses in their early days of practice, because of the high demands placed on them by the healthcare system; hospital administrations; the expectations of management, patients, families and carers; and the sheer size of the patient loads with complex needs these days. The global pandemic erupting has now pushed a health care service that was already under pressure to now be in complete crisis. The world now knows that we need more nurses employed to be able to move forward from this calamity. This book closes that gap in that it encourages the readers to continue to pursue a career in nursing (despite the challenges that the profession holds) while also positively promoting the incredible work that nurses do. The chapters within this book, explore a cornucopia of different aspects of nursing including: caring for dying patients, dealing with bodily fluids and how patients are not very good at working out how sick they really are. The book also covers how to manage the care of patients with complex mental illnesses and those contemplating suicide. This book is targeted at nurses who may feel a little overwhelmed with the world that is nursing but who wish to thrive and further their career. Discussion questions at the end of the book further add to the reflection and learning process of the reader. 001461421 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001461421 650_0 $$aNursing$$xVocational guidance. 001461421 650_0 $$aNursing$$xPsychological aspects. 001461421 650_0 $$aNursing$$xSocial aspects. 001461421 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001461421 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aKabaila, Rasa.$$tPut some concrete in your breakfast.$$dCham : Springer, 2023$$z9783031243929$$w(OCoLC)1371815726 001461421 852__ $$bebk 001461421 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-24393-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001461421 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1461421$$pGLOBAL_SET 001461421 980__ $$aBIB 001461421 980__ $$aEBOOK 001461421 982__ $$aEbook 001461421 983__ $$aOnline 001461421 994__ $$a92$$bISE
