Good stories can be very powerful and moving, especially when they
include an emotional component. Telling an entertaining story is
important, but bringing that personal component to the story makes
it much better. 7 Summits: A Nurse’s Quest to Conquer
Mountaineering in Life is written by Dr. Patrick Hickey, the first
nurse in the world to complete the 7 Summits of the World on his
first attempt of each mountain. The publication encourages the
reader to make major changes in his/her life by looking at life
through the 7 Summits of Life. 7 Summits: A Nurse’s Quest to
Conquer Mountaineering in Life: Utilizes stories to help students
learn. Once students have a memorable story to help them remember a
key theme or piece of information, they are much more capable of
recalling that information when needed. Includes blogs and quotes
from fellow climbers and nurses during the author’s 2 month climb
up/down Mt. Everest. Addresses the challenges in nursing,
the nursing shortage, issues with retention, and the challenges
that face student nurses. Estimates are that at least 75,000
qualified applicants in 2011 were turned away from admission to
nursing schools due to an insufficient number of faculty, shortage
of clinical sites, a lack of classroom space, minimal qualified
preceptors for the clinical setting, and financial constraints of
individual colleges. Supports the Nurses Can Do Anything
Scholarship established by Dr. Patrick Hickey in the Foundation of
the National Student Nurses’ Association (all author royalties
are donated in support).
