The Pro-Nurse Handbook is an easy-to-read "self-help" book that offers tips for success on both professional and personal levels. Using a humourous and witty approach, Melodie Chenevert discusses problems faced by nurses every day, such as burnout, procrastination, productivity, and powerlessness. She offers suggestions for creative problem solving, and encourages nurses to take charge of their career. This new edition has been updated to address the concerns of today's nurses, including managed care, the changing job market, and the use of unlicensed personnel.
As a teacher of Life Skills, ESL, and as a responsible citizen who wants to contribute to my society, I consider Chenevert's handbook a treasure! The 'How to Thrive Chart' has inspired me and hundreds of learners over the past four decades. Now I'm a retired volunteer teacher of ESL, and once again, so grateful for the How To Thrive Chart which still thoroughly applies in decade number five! Thank you, Nurse Chenevert, for all the fun and powerful activities in your brilliant handbook!
