A nurse's work is multifaceted, medically complex, technically precise, and physically demanding. But nursing-the act of caring-is also social, emotional, impactful, and personal. Because nursing education programs prioritize the importance of the technical and physical aspects of nursing, that is what they teach. This leaves practicing nurses poorly equipped to understand the science of caring and unprepared for the constant stream of emotional and psychological stressors that come with this profoundly important work. The unintended consequences of this omission include burnout, toxic work environments, and exodus from the profession. This guide is designed to work as both a companion and a stand-alone resource for integrating the teachings and learnings from Reflective Practice: Reimagining Ourselves and Reimagining Nursing, 3rd ed.. Reflection is crucial for personal and professional growth and development as it allows us to analyze and learn from our experiences. Each chapter begins with learning objectives and subjectives to emphasize the importance of fully integrating cognitive, psychomotor, and affective learning into our teaching and learning. Micropractices, small-scale reflective activities, encourage readers to seek deeper insights and learn more tools for improving both self-care and caring for others. Learning narratives and reflective questions are also included in each chapter. Learners may use the Reflective Practice Learning Guide & Journal as part of a class, for personal journaling to renew and revision themselves, or as a part of systematic professional growth and development. Educators can use the guide for their own professional development, renewal, and regeneration or as an accompaniment to classroom or clinical learning experiences with any level of learner.

The unintended consequences of this omission include burnout, toxic work environments, and exodus from the profession. In this highly anticipated and particularly timely third edition of Reflective Practice, authors Sara Horton-Deutsch and Gwen Sherwood invite readers to reflect, recalibrate, reimagine, rethink, and reframe the work of nursing care and their various roles and relationships within it. This book focuses first on the individual, then practice settings, and finally systems and communities while providing supporting theoretical frameworks, practical applications, and opportunities for personal and shared reflection along the way. Reflective Practice guides nurses to emotional and psychological fulfillment in all aspects of care.

Nurses have historically been the heart of healing in the healthcare system. But today's care providers are often ill-prepared for the heavy toll of their day-today workload and its impact on their ability to be fully present for others. The dilemma? Accept things the way they are, or search for a different way.Sara Horton-Deutsch and Jan Anderson present the Caritas Coach Education Program® (CCEP), based on the moral, ethical, philosophical, and practice principles of Caring Science. Caritas Coaching® provides nurses and other caregivers a deep, intimate look at how to infuse their practice with Caring Science, a scientific and philosophical context to explore, describe, and research human healing. By integrating Caring Science into their practice, nurses can balance information and technology with the human side of healthcare.Using shared experiences of caring moments, transpersonal journeys, and ongoing evolution, this book provides:A teaching and learning guide for Caritas Coaches® who have completed the programA resource for nurses whose hospitals have adopted Caring Science as their practice modelAn inspiration for all nurses and healthcare professionals who seek a path to deeply care for self, individuals, families, and communities

This Facilitator Guide is designed to work with the textbook and Learner Activities Workbook and follows a similar format. It includes reflective questions and guiding answers, narratives and guiding responses, quizzes and answers, and PowerPoint slides. Learners can use the reflective questions and narratives to guide their reading, thinking, and group discussions or activities. Like the textbook, this Facilitator Guide comprises five parts, which support nurse leaders' development in clinical practice or academic settings. PART I -- The guide presents leadership theories in organizations. There are four topics in this part, which are close­ly connected:PART II -- Leadership's roles in creating healthy work environments are addressed. The four topics in this part sup­port readers in establishing and promoting organizational culture and environments: PART III -- Four visionary leadership theories are applied in practice: PART IV -- The role of nurse leadership in collaboration, leading change, and innovation is presented: PART V -- The last part envisions the future of nurse leadership: With an emphasis on collaboration and partnerships, this book moves away from hierarchical forms of leadership to teach more engaged, open, equitable, inclusive, authentic and caring leadership styles.
