Addiction in the Lives of Registered Nurses and Their Wake-Up Jolt to Recovery

Addiction in the Lives of Registered Nurses and Their Wake-Up Jolt to Recovery

By: Carol Stanford

In this age of increasing headlines about drug addiction and prescription drug abuse, this book is a timely revelation of how the nursing profession is also impacted by substance abuse. It allows nurses, who are the most trusted profession in society, who have been hidden within their profession and living with substance use disorders, to openly voice their personal experiences with addiction. Seven nurses detail their journey through family dynamics, early use as nursing students and later career nurses as they traveled deeper and deeper into their addiction. They discuss their shame, humiliation and dejection under the throes of the compelling forces of drugs and alcohol. They also describe how their family, other nurses, the healthcare system, and society assisted them in perpetuating their deception and denial about their disease. They explain how they lied, stole and cheated those around them to maintain their addiction. Each explains in detail the confrontations and the “jolt” and “wake up call” it took for them to awaken, become sober and truly enter recovery. They are all candid and forthright in order to help others that are impacted by this horrific and complex disease. They each share how recovery is possible when appropriate attitudes and tools are put in place to support nurses suffering from the devastation of addiction. Their stories bring attention to the importance of intervention, treatment, and recovery communities within the nursing profession. Recovery is emphasized as a “gift” by each of these nurses. The nurses and the researcher provide suggestions and recommendations to assist the healthcare community in addressing addiction in nursing. This book reveals how recovery for nurses is a major public health benefit.

Understanding Pedagogy

Developing a critical approach to teaching and learning

By: Michael Waring,Carol Evans

What is meant by pedagogy? How does our conception of pedagogy inform good teaching and learning? Pedagogy is a complex concept of which student and practising teachers need to have an understanding, yet there remain many ambiguities about what the term means, and how it informs learning in the classroom. Understanding Pedagogy examines pedagogy in a holistic way, supporting a more critical and reflective understanding of teaching and learning. It considers pedagogy as a concept that covers not just teaching approaches and pupil-teacher relationships but one which also embraces and informs educational theory, personal learning styles, assessment, and relationships inside and outside the classroom. A detailed consideration of what it means to be a professional in the contemporary climate, Understanding Pedagogy challenges student and practising teachers to reappraise their understanding and practice through effectively linking theory and practice. Key issues explored include the importance of understanding a learning styles profile, the application of cognitive neuroscience to teaching, personalised learning, assessment and feedback, and what we mean by critical reflection. Using the Personal Learning Styles Pedagogy, the authors make explicit the integration of theory and practice and the many decisions and selections that teachers make, their implications for what is being taught and learnt, how learners are positioned in the pedagogical process, and ultimately, how learning can be improved. Understanding Pedagogy will be essential reading for student and practising teachers, as well those on Education Studies courses and undertaking masters level courses, involved in the endeavour of understanding what constitutes effective teaching and learning.

Witch Hunt

By: Carol C. Morgan

As bestselling novelist Rebecca Spencer, trying to put an ugly divorce behind her, prepares to move back home to Texas, she receives a letter from her high school nemesis, Catrina Sullivan, now on Texas death row for the brutal murder of her 3-year old daughter. What could she possibly want??? Rebecca tosses the letter in a desk drawer and forgets about it. As she is settling back into life in the small East Texas town of Oleander, and struggling against her growing attraction to her high school sweetheart, Sheriff Russell Jareau, Rebecca decides to read Catrina’s letter, only to find that it’s a plea for help. “My appeals are running out. You’re the only one I can trust.” Why me??? Rebecca wonders. How can I be the only one you can trust??? And trust with what??? Curiosity wins out and Rebecca visits Catrina who vehemently denies her guilt. She wants Rebecca to research her case, write her story, and hopefully find something that will exonerate her. Skeptical and unsympathetic, Rebecca agrees to listen to her story, only to come away with growing doubts about Catrina’s guilt. Against everyone’s advice, she begins to delve into the heinous murder, and Catrina’s warning comes back to haunt her: “Be careful. As long as I’m in here with the world thinking I’m guilty, the killer is safe. When you start asking questions, somebody might get worried.” Soon somebody is very worried. People Rebecca interview about the crime begin to die. As the body count rises, she narrowly escapes one attempt on her own life ... and it won’t be the last.
