Synopsis

Pulling Together to Make a Difference is a book of 14 essays on the ultimate changes which must be accepted by all nurses, and nurse leaders, especially, in order to create the modern nursing profession. Service, cost and quality are hallmarks of success today in health care delivery. These three hallmarks have always been the centerpiece of nursing practice. When we pull together, every nurse makes a difference every day.

Dr. Farley, a well-known nursing leader, speaks of the current issues in nursing today: change, new opportunities, empowerment, conflict resolution; and presents a refreshing, optimistic, and inspirational view of nursing in the future. Each chapter is loaded with practical insights and advice that will make you a better nurse, leader, employee and person.
