Sue Johnson

A saga tells of a heroic journey where characters find out who they are, face fear and peril, and with comrades, fight to save their world. The whimsical tales of Edgar & Elouise make up two such sagas. But how do we know - and even change - how we see ourselves? A strangely wise and wordy porcupine seems to be able to tell us And after all, he says, "We all need new stories - new ways to see."There is also, as in most sagas, a monster to defeat. But first, to even turn and face a monster, there are key questions: How do we face our fear? What can we do in the face of overwhelming odds? Sagas are about being human in an uncertain and dangerous world. How do we sculpt an inner strength and strong connections with others, and how can we protect what we love - our frail and magical world? Stories are like magic - they help us survive.

In times of ever-changing healthcare policy, many organizations have developed methods for reforming and optimizing healthcare systems. One prevailing healthcare approach is the Quadruple Aim, which incorporates four different goals: improving population health; improving experience of care; lowering healthcare costs; and improving provider work life (team vitality). Created by the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, the Quadruple Aim method is not nursing-specific, but its framework for optimizing health system performance is coherent with the nursing profession today. This book argues that the widespread adoption of the Quadruple Aim could help create a sustainable healthcare system. Using the work and legacy of nursing pioneer Florence Nightingale, this book provides an early example of successful, holistic healthcare that balances cost-effectiveness with quality of care for both patients and nurses.

Synaesthesia is a condition in which one type of stimulation evokes the sensation of another, as when the hearing of music produces the visualisation of colour. The condition is linked to autism and dyslexia. There are estimated to be 70 different types of synaesthesia and it is experienced by approximately 4% of the population.

Florence Nightingale never could have predicted the current, complex landscape of the nursing profession when she built its foundations more than a century ago. But her vision is still alive, as evidenced in recommendations from the 2010 Institute of Medicine (IOM) Future of Nursing report and its 2015 follow-up assessment.Health care reform will be a constant over the next few years, and nurses must be at the table for decision-making - nationally, regionally, and locally. Drawing on feedback about the IOM’s vision of nursing from a representative sample of nurses, as well as their thoughts on both sets of recommendations, Nightingale’s Vision brings into focus the status of each recommendation, and the ways in which Florence Nightingale’s vision aligns with them.The IOM recommendations are a blueprint, but all nurses must understand them and be involved in their success. Applicable to any practicing nurse in any role or setting, Nightingale’s Vision is an essential reference to guide nurses in the advancement of their profession in the next decade and beyond.Florence Nightingale would approve!
