"Healing: When a Nurse Becomes a Patient" by Theresa Brown, RN (author of "The Shift") (2022)
Despite years of experience as an oncology and hospice nurse, Brown finds it difficult to navigate the medical maze from the other side of the bed. At times she’s mad at herself for not speaking up and asking for what she needs but knows that being a “difficult” patient could mean she gets worse care. Her experience shows us how our for-profit health care industry “cures” us but at the same time leaves so many of us feeling alienated and uncared for. (2.0 contact hours)
