Registered nurse Salts (New Dad Words of Wisdom) shares a comprehensive collection of hard-won professional and personal advice for fellow nurses. Taking a folksy just-between-us tone, Salts advises nurses to establish routines, concentrate on self-care, use visualization techniques, get enough quality sleep, and remember to laugh: “We are going to dig deep within ourselves, find our inner strength, allow it to come to the surface, and shine it on the world.” He opines that communication—whether at a hospital bedside (when in doubt, smile and reassure) or communicating with other professionals (be firm but nonconfrontational with workplace bullies)—is key for success. Physical health strategies, such as avoiding back trouble by intensive stretching and relaxing with yoga, are also covered. A particular highlight is Beau’s clever “nurse workout” tailored to time-crunched professionals (including push-ups, lunges, and squats), as well as more involved routines for nurses looking to build strength and endurance. With its bounty of suggestions and exercises, this is a great resource for nurses or anyone who’s on their feet all day. (Self-published)
