James Patterson's account of the twilight world between life and
death that nurses inhabit is one of the most moving things I have
ever read. In their own bullet-straight words, these heroes
describe the pain, the love, and the brutally hard work of trying
to save people's lives. I could not stop reading it and when I was
done I felt like I was changed forever.

Perfect Storm*
As a trauma neurosurgeon, I have witnessed the compassion, the work
ethic, and the selflessness of our nurses in countless situations.
They save our lives every day and represent the true life blood of
any hospital. Their stories are given the respect they deserve and
are captured beautifully in ER Nurses.
*Sanjay Gupta, MD, neurosurgeon and chief medical correspondent,
CNN*
ER Nurses captures the beating heart of nursing: the lives lost and
saved, the hard tragedies and unbelievable miracles, and how every
day nurses show up, give their all for patients, and then do it
over and over and over again, all while holding onto their empathy
and humanity. Readers will be stunned and moved by this
no-holds-barred portrait of nurses' essential and deeply meaningful
work.
*Theresa Brown, PhD, RN, author of the New York Times bestseller
The Shift: One Nurse, Twelve Hours, Four Patients' Lives*
These readable bite-sized snippets represent a significant
caregiver demographic of women and men who exhibit the
labour-intensive focus, compassion, dedication, and passion
necessary to be an emergency nurse. From the heartfelt to the
tragic, this book displays the nursing profession in all its unsung
glory. A timely tribute to the modern-day heroes of medicine,
conveyed in their own words.
