Synopsis

Nurses are the heartbeat of health care. Doctors may dispense prescriptions, but it is nurses who bring about the cure. A good nurse is one who embodies medical expertise, compassion, patience, and such a nurse is hard to find. After being involved in the nursing profession most of her life, Betty Navratil, in her invigorating new book, Missing Caps, details the reasons why there is a dearth of nurses in Hong Kong, United States, and Canada. Telling with a candid perspicuity, Navratil gives us some of the most graphic story of some of the accounts of endless shifts, racism, prejudice, and unprofessionalism that contribute to the high turnover rates in the nursing profession. But Navratil does not leave us in the dire plunge. Rather, through her erudite research and piquant observations, she offers some revolutionary solutions that will elevate such a shortfall of nurses. Navratil writes in such a gripping way that you will find your eyes glued to every word and you will find your heart stirred by her stories. This book deserves wide circulation, and considering the plight of our health system, this book is a must-read, and it deserves to be a textbook for all aspiring nurses. Timothy Yap, PhD
