Regal Manna

Make Dating Your Health: The Blood, The Cells, The Oxygen - the essence of this message would resonate deeply. The importance of dating your health transcends mere words or scientific facts; it's about recognizing that oxygen is not just a biological necessity but a vital partner in our lives. Just as in any romantic relationship, nurturing and valuing this connection is essential for a vibrant, fulfilling life. Oxygen is the unseen thread that ties together every aspect of life. The relationships we cherish, the homes we build, and even the paper we use to make payments—all of these are sustained by oxygen. You might say that just as people go to great lengths to protect their loved ones or secure their homes, they must also fight to maintain their relationship with oxygen. Without it, none of the other elements of life could exist. Oxygen is more than just a biological necessity; it is the caregiver of our existence. In turn, we must become caregivers of our health, nurturing our bond with oxygen as we would any other vital relationship.

Dr Nurse - Science Politics and...

Dominique A. Tobbell

An analysis of the efforts of American nurses to establish nursing as an academic discipline and nurses as valued researchers in the decades after World War II. 
 
Nurses represent the largest segment of the U.S. health care workforce and spend significantly more time with patients than any other member of the health care team. Dr. Nurse probes their history to examine major changes that have taken place in American health care in the second half of the twentieth century. The book reveals how federal and state health and higher education policies shaped education within health professions after World War II. 
 
Starting in the 1950s, academic nurses sought to construct a science of nursing—distinct from that of the related biomedical or behavioral sciences—that would provide the basis for nursing practice. Their efforts transformed nursing’s labor into a valuable site of knowledge production and proved how the application of their knowledge was integral to improving patient outcomes. Exploring the knowledge claims, strategies, and politics involved as academic nurses negotiated their roles and nursing’s future, Dr. Nurse highlights how state-supported health centers have profoundly shaped nursing education and health care delivery.
