The nursing profession is under pressure. Financial demands,
student debt, the target culture, political scrutiny in the wake of
major care scandals and increasing workloads are all taking their
toll on professional morale and performance. This timely book
considers the meaning of resilience in this adverse context and
explains why measures to preserve individual nurses' and students'
well-being are flawed if they don't take into account wider
political and organizational perspectives. Arguing that healthcare
can be thought about and experienced differently, this book:
provides a summary of the latest research on resilience, explaining
its relevance and also limitations for nurses; considers debates
about compassion and highlights the effects of policy agendas on
nurse education and nursing work; re-evaluates nursing's
professional identity, including where nursing has come from and
the effects of class, gender and race on its powerbase; assesses
the role of politics and social media, both in driving change and
feeding resistance; and introduces the idea of critical resilience
as a complete framework for resisting bullying and fostering
survival and change in the nursing workforce. Direct, upbeat, at
times provocative and witty, this agenda-setting book enables
nurses to understand why they feel the way they do. It also lists
what opportunities are available to them to change, resist and
survive in what has become a complex, challenging - if still deeply
rewarding - line of work.
