Notes on Nursing

Notes on Nursing by Florence Nightingale
By: (1820-1910)

Notes on Nursing by Florence Nightingale is a timeless classic that serves as a valuable resource for anyone in the healthcare field. Nightingale's insights on the principles of nursing and patient care are still relevant today, despite being written over a century ago.

One of the strengths of this book is Nightingale's emphasis on the importance of cleanliness and hygiene in patient care. She stresses the need for a sanitary environment to prevent the spread of infection and illness, a principle that is still a cornerstone of modern nursing practice.

Another highlight of Notes on Nursing is Nightingale's emphasis on the importance of observation and patient assessment. She encourages nurses to carefully monitor their patients' conditions and to use their observations to guide their care decisions, a practice that is still crucial in the nursing profession today.

Overall, Notes on Nursing is a must-read for anyone in the healthcare field. Nightingale's insights and teachings are as relevant today as they were when she first wrote them, making this book an essential resource for nurses of all levels of experience.

Book Description:
Notes on Nursing was published in 1859 and is a fascinating view into the theories underpinning the early development of modern nursing and public health reform by "the Lady with the Lamp", Florence Nightingale. Emphasising common sense and thought for the patient's care in many more ways than just administering physician-prescribed medicines, this is still a very relevant book for those interested in health or caring for the sick and infirm today.

Subject: Delightful read
Cori Samuel has a perfectly delightful reading voice and manner! The book itself is fascinating as a description of common life in the late 1800's and Cori makes it even more fascinating by her perfect clarity and expression. I feel as if I am listening to the voice of Florence Nightingale herself. I've gotten through four hours of cleaning and cooking with hardly thought of the work, so thoroughly enthralling is this reading. Not to mention how it inspired me to go on with renewed purpose as I heard the various exhortations to cleanliness! I can't say enough good things about this book and reader. I am so glad Cori Samuel did this reading solo. I have already looked up her other solo readings and am adding some of them to my list.
