The Center for Health Care Strategies reported that 36 percent of adults in the United States have a low health literacy level. This clearly shows that we have an opportunity for growth as a Country. Increasing a person's and a family's health literacy level will help people take better care of themselves physically and mentally. It could help the community become more resilient. This book summarizes some important points in nursing school. You will NOT become a nurse by reading this book. This book does NOT take the place of advice from your Health Care Provider. This book does NOT take the place of formal medical training. This book is solely intended to make people more aware of medical issues and help them seek care from a Health Care Provider more quickly. It seems as though sometimes we delay getting a medical evaluation for different reasons. As you will see in this book, some abnormal health symptoms are really symptoms of more serious diseases and may not be simply a sign of aging. For example, if an elderly person suddenly becomes confused, there is a real possibility they are having a urinary tract infection since that can cause confusion in the elderly. There are also some things in this book that discuss how healthcare operates. It is not expected that people would read and memorize this book. It could be useful, though, for a non-medical person to read through this easy to understand book once every year or two to refresh their mind on some important health concepts.

The Story of a Nurse Continued

"ENTERTAINING...GRITTY, BEHIND-THE-SCENES DETAILS OF HOSPITAL OPERATIONS." --Booklist "In the prologue of this book, Echo Heron, RN, states: Nurses are able to do what they do because they are rich in the gifts of healing, compassion and love. She then goes on to illustrate that statement with 18 chapters of amusing and moving true stories of her career in critical care and in the emergency room." --Chicago Tribune "Heron gives a voice to her fellow nurses (a savvy, wisecracking, take-no-guff voice) and turns them into real people." --Seattle Post-Intelligencer "Although Heron provides enough personal detail to make the book a very good read, its importance lies in her depiction of how sick people really function, what nurses do to help them, and how little physicians, hospitals and our society understand or value that work." --The Washington Post Book World AN ALTERNATE SELECTION OF THE LITERARY GUILD(c) From the Paperback edition.

The Classic Guide

The Complete Book of Breastfeeding is a recognized classic in its field. Now it's been completely revised and updated in a new fourth edition--non-doctrinaire, informative, and friendly, it is the most accessible and authoritative book, as much required reading for expecting and new mothers as a pregnancy guide and baby name book.

All healthy mothers should consider breastfeeding for the first year of a baby's life, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics, and this is the book that will help women give their babies the healthiest start possible. Written by Sally Wendkos Olds and a new co-author, Laura Marks, M.D., The Complete Book of Breastfeeding, Fourth Edition offers a comprehensive introduction to breastfeeding--how to get ready before the baby arrives; how to involve fathers and siblings; and the best diet and foods for mom. There are sections on dealing with problems at the hospital; extensive information on exclusive pumping (EPing); the best systems for giving supplementary bottles to a breastfed baby; the safest sleep scenarios for babies; breastfeeding in public, including laws affecting breastfeeding mothers. New data about preterm infants is presented, and special situations--multiples, breast cancer, overweight and large-breasted women, breast surgery, tattoos and piercings--are also discussed in detail. An expanded chapter on weaning features sections on breastfeeding past infancy. Also new is an appendix of online resources.

A self-anointed spinster at fifty-one, Myra Lipinski is reasonably content with her quiet life, her dog, Frank, and her career as a visiting nurse. But everything changes when Chip Reardon, the golden boy she adored in high school, is assigned as her new patient. Choosing to forgo treatment for an incurable illness, Chip has returned to his New England hometown to spend what time he has left. Now, Myra and Chip find themselves engaged in a poignant redefinition of roles, and a complicated dance of memory, ambivalence, and longing.

This is an amazing book set on the knife edge of WWI.  More fiction than fact, but would make an great movie.

Minnesota

On the eve of World War I, twenty-one-year-old Georgie Hyde-Lees meets the acclaimed poet W. B. Yeats at a soirée in London. Although Yeats is famously eccentric and many years her senior, Georgie is drawn to him, and when he extends a cryptic invitation to a secret society, her life is forever changed.

As zeppelins stalk overhead and bombs bloom against the skyline, Georgie finds purpose tending to injured soldiers in a makeshift hospital. She befriends the wounded and heartbroken Lieutenant Pike, who might need more from her than she is able to give. At night, she escapes with Yeats into a darker world, becoming immersed in the Order, a clandestine society of ritual and magic.  As forces--both of this world and the next--pull Yeats and Georgie closer together and then apart, Georgie uncovers a secret that threatens to undo it all.

In bright, commanding prose, author Alice Miller illuminates the fascinating and unforgettable courtship of Georgie Hyde-Lees and W. B. Yeats. A sweeping tale of faith and love, lost and found and fought for, More Miracle than Bird ingeniously captures the moments--both large and small--on which the fates of whole lives and countries hinge.
