I liked the book but found it very depressing I was an rn for 35 years also. It's a shame that every hospital or position he worked in had inadequate staff. No doubt he was an excellent nurse but it seemed like he took the weight of the world on his shoulders. He went from job to job because he did not like what was going on and verbalized it every where. I think should have been more tactfully in these situations he encountered. even though it did depress me. He wrote it from his heart.i would liked to have seen more information about his good encounters.
Although this book has gotten a lot of bad reviews, I enjoyed the book. The author doesn't sugarcoat anything, and was honest about what his experiences were, both good and bad. He doesn't take all the credit, and often praises nurses and doctors. Just like any field, there's going to be people who give the job a bad name. He tells those as well. He's had quite a career! He's very good at giving visuals to understand. It's well worth reading. I recommend reading this book for anyone who wants to an inside view into life as a nurse.
Everything about this book paints an accurate picture of the daily life of the ER nurse; the frantic pace, the changing of gears in a split second, the highest of highs, and the lowest of lows. Having been in the profession for over 25 years, I can relate to many of the vignettes recounted. We (nurses) are often our own worst enemies and harshest critics. Too many times do we go home wondering if we could have done just a little bit more. Dave’s assessment of those in healthcare are correct. The good ones often suffer from Imposter Syndrome, the bad ones from the Dunning-Kruger Effect. Having worked with the author, I know him to be a man of integrity and a nurse of the highest caliber. Great job Dave! Do these scrubs make me look fat?
An excellent book for anyone who is considering nursing or just wants to know about this noble profession. The book is well written, with a lot of interesting details and observations. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I am a retired long term care nurse of 42 years. I totally identify. I found a lot of "nurses" go into the field looking for easy money. They really do just sit and ignore their patients needs. But like David , I could not just leave them in distress. Way to go David! Thanks for caring and sharing! Great book! Please keep writing!
I liked that the book is a series of quick 1 - 2 - 3 punches without any rest between rounds. The book never got boring and presented not the mundane in nursing but the unusual that you won't learn in a nursing class in school. I am a reader that gets easily bored but I couldn't put this book down. I found some experiences funny, some unfortunate but all of them interesting enough to not allow me to put the book down. I went back onto Amazon and bought a few more books to share with my coworkers at the hospital I work.
In full disclosure I have known the author since 1978. Although we are separated by two coasts (East & West) we have remained connected. Having said that, the book was a great read & an easy read. I was captivated from the first chapter. What is described throughout the text is a testament to a man I know to be both honorable & trustworthy. Davis is a self driven man with a great work ethic. Nursing is not an easy profession, but a rewarding one as described in detail. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to be a nurse. I know that David sees nursing as a "calling", not just a job. Anyone considering to be trained as a nurse should remember that! Serve the patient!!! Kudos to you my friend. Michael
THIS BOOK IS PERFECT FOR NURSES GRADUATING FROM NURSING SCHOOL. THE AUTHOR SHOOTS FROM THE HIP WITH NO BS. I WISH THIS BOOK WAS AROUND 10-15 YEARS AGO WHEN I TRIED TO EXPLAIN TO A NURSING GRADUATE WHAT SHE WAS GETTING HERSELF INTO. THE AUTHOR HAS A GOOD FORMAT WITH ONE EXPERIENCE PER CHAPTER. MR. DANIELS HAS A UPLIFTING STYLE WHILE DRAWING FROM HIS NUMEROUS INTERACTIONS WITH OTHER "MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS" OVER THE PAST 30 YEARS. I READ THIS BOOK WITHIN TWO DAYS, I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN.. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK FOR ALL NURSING STUDENTS,GRADUATES, OR ANYONE CONSIDERING JOINING THE MEDICAL FIELD. I PRAY THAT IF I END UP IN THE ER, THAT THE PERSONNEL THERE WILL HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE AND CAN DO ATTITUDE THAT DANIELS WRITES ABOUT IN HIS BOOK .
1.0 out of 5 stars
Difficult to like or empathise with the author.
i usually enjoy books like this, and am interested in finding out about people, and their accounts of their lives and careers. I found it really hard to warm to the author, who seemed to encounter trouble wherever he went. He had many posts in a variety of settings, yet seemed to think he was the only competent nurse wherever he worked. He picks faults with all of his colleagues and managers, yet doesn't wonder what it could be about himself that seems to bring out the worst in everyone and anyone he works with. I was determined to finish the book, but really struggled towards the end because it was so difficult to empathise with the author who just came over as vindictive and hard done by.

Not worth reading
I don't normally give negative reviews but this book was boring. The author thought himself more professional than the people he worked with and overall the memoir was disjointed. Would not recommend.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Love love love
I really enjoyed reading this book. I am currently debating training to become a nurse and after reading the incredible selfless acts of the male nurse, I too want to dedicate ny life to helping and saving people's lives. He is a inspiration to me. This book also made me realise how many options and jobs there are within the nursing industry. I'm very glad I read this book.

Before you go
I found this hard to read. It’s meant to be funny. It is in places but others not. It’s ok.

Wonderful Read
Thank you for writing this book. I am a student nurse in Australia and I know our health system here is the exact same as the USA. This book solidified that I won't be a nurse in a hospital setting ever. This book was well written and I just couldn't put it down. So much now makes sense from when I was a patient myself. Like having to wait for a bed to become available but then realizing it was the end of the shift so no one wanted to admit me onto a ward. Such an eye opener. I have recommended this book to all my nursing student friends. Thanks again and thank you for being the kind of nurse I aspire to be David

Home / Nursing Careers & Specialties / Occupational Health Nurse
Occupational health nursing is the specialty practice of delivering health and safety programs and services to employees, worker populations, and association groups. Sometimes occupational health nurses are referred to as occupational and environmental health nurses (OHNs). Occupational health nurses focus on the promotion and re-establishment of health, the prevention of ailment and injury, and protecting workers from occupation-related and environmental hazards. OHNs have cumulative knowledge of both health and business that they utilize to promote a safe, secure, and healthy work environment while maintaining a company’s bottom line.
A certified occupational health nurse is responsible for the health and safety of the workers in certain industries. Occupational health nurses are registered nurses (RNs) who typically have experience in community health care, ambulatory or critical care, or emergency nursing. Generally, OHNs will hold a 4-year degree in nursing and gain experience as occupational health nurses before fully entering the field.
To become an occupational nurse, you must first become a licensed registered nurse (RN) . In order to become an RN, you will need to complete an Associate's Degree in Nursing (ADN) program or Bachelor’s of Science in Nursing (BSN) . Once either your BSN or ADN is completed, you are then eligible to take the NCLEX-RN exam, which upon passing allows you to become a registered nurse. Some occupational health nurses will be certified nurse practitioners who have obtained the equivalent of a Master’s Degree in Nursing (MSN) . Nurse practitioner (NP) occupational health nurses can work as a corporate nurses, clinical nurses, or clinical nurse managers, as well as nurse educators and nurse consultants. Many occupational health nurses have also obtained advanced degrees in areas like public health and business. Additionally, certified occupational health nurses can receive field training from the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) .
Certification in occupational health nursing can be achieved via The American Board for Occupational Health Nurses, Inc . To become a certified occupational health nurse, you will first need to be a fully licensed registered nurse with at least 3,000 hours of work experience in the occupational health field within the last five years, or have a graduate level degree in occupational health. The last step of this process will be sitting for and passing the certification examination.
Roles of Occupational health nurses (OHNs) are highly diverse. OHNs can be clinicians, educators, case managers, consultants, or corporate managers. Some occupational health nurses will choose to remain in hospital settings so as to help develop and implement safety procedures; however, most will find employment outside of typical medical facilities, designing structured security protocols and healthy living guidelines for a wide variety of organizations across the country. OHNs might work in a specific office, or they might work on a consulting basis and out of private practice.
An Occupational Health Nurse Practitioner, or OHNP, specializes in health and safety in corporate, industrial, governmental, and academic settings.
Education requirements to be an Occupational Health Nurse Practitioner are as follows:
Licensure requirements are typical of any nurse practitioner:
Upon completion of a master’s degree in nursing, graduates may sit for the national certification exam through the American Board for Occupational Health Nurses ( ABOHN ) if they want to pursue a career in the field. National certification as either a Certified Occupational Health Nurse (COHN) or a Certified Occupational Health Nurse-Specialist (COHN-S) is frequently sought as a way to advance careers and earn higher salaries as occupational nurses.
Aside from treating work-related injuries or illness and providing education to employees, OHNPs can also increase employee retention by making the work environment safe, reducing worker’s compensation claims, and helping administration abide by OSHA, FMLA, and HIPAA regulations.
Occupational health nurses perform many roles in their day-to-day work, from patient education to medical records review to direct patient care. They face several challenges as well.
One challenge is the emotional toll they may experience. Sometimes occupational health nurses see patients who are severely injured on the job. They know that the worker’s future can be seriously impacted depending on the injury. For example, a construction worker who sustains a back injury that renders him permanently unable to work. These situations can be emotionally draining.
Another challenge is reconciling efficiency and patient care.
