Nursing - A Calling To Care India Debut January 2012

NURSES EXPECTED TO CARE FOR 32 MILLION MORE PATIENTS BY 2014 MIAMI FLORIDA (2/18/2012) — Fresh from her tour in India and just in time for Nurses’ Week, Lauren is all set to talk about nursing challenges at home and abroad. Nursing: A Calling to Care —A Celebration of Nurses, Past, Present and Future, presents a global perspective of nursing as a profession and of the prevailing nursing shortage. See the possible effects in 2014 when Medicaid adds a whopping 32 million people to the US healthcare system. Feel the desperation as India faces a shortfall of 2.4 million nurses right now in 2012. And while the casualties increase, Africa despairingly admits that it would take hundreds of years to train enough nurses to provide a 1:1000 nurse to patient ratio. Are there any practical solutions? And how can your God-given S.H.A.P.E help to provide a whole new look at nursing as a calling rather than just another profession? Written from the perspective of hundreds of years of collaborative nursing experience, Nursing: A Calling to Care — A Celebration of Nurses, Past, Present and Future captures a snapshot of nursing practice in North America, Asia, and other parts of the world. Get the real story — starting with Florence Nightingale, the founder of professional nursing, to men only schools of nursing to the founding of the Red Cross. Find out what Walt Whitman, a New Orleans slave and St. Camillus all had in common and discover why in the 21st century some men still need permission to be nurses. Lauren E. Myers, RN has been in continuous practice since 1989. She is an award winning Christian writer (Reflections: Seeing through the Glass darkly, In the Presence of Grace, God Speaks My Language), pastor, conference and motivational speaker.
