Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

You gave everything to your patients today. So why is there nothing left for you?Nursing school taught you to spot sepsis, titrate a drip and talk a frightened family through their worst day. It never taught you how to survive the job itself: the short-staffed shifts, the patients you can't forget, the daytime sleep that never comes, and the slow fade of the passion that made you choose nursing.A Nurse's Guide to Surviving and Thriving is the practical, honest toolkit nurses have been missing. Written by a nurse for nurses, it's built for tired minds. You can read a section on break, a chapter between shifts, or a single tip while your coffee brews.Inside, you'll learn how to: - Spot the early warning signs of burnout before it breaks you- Process trauma and secondary stress instead of carrying it home- Say no to extra shifts and unsafe assignments, with word-for-word scripts- Sleep better on nights and rotating shifts, with sample schedules that actually work- Stay fueled through a 12-hour shift without relying on candy and caffeine- Calm your stress response in 60 seconds, right on the floor- Protect your relationships and reclaim your identity beyond the scrubs- Build a support system that has your back, at work and at home- Rediscover your purpose, and decide with clarity whether to stay, shift, or step awayEvery chapter opens with a real-to-life scenario you'll recognize and closes with an End-of-Shift Report you can review in two minutes. In between, you'll find quick self-assessments, fill-in exercises, easy-to-scan tables, and callout boxes packed with Charge Nurse Tips, Red Flags, and honest Real Talk.This isn't about pushing harder or pretending you're fine. Burnout isn't a character flaw. It's what happens when caring people carry too much for too long without the right tools.You've spent your career caring for everyone else. Now it's time to care for yourself the same way.Scroll up and start surviving, and thriving, today.
