Being a nurse is physically and emotionally demanding; the shifts are long and grueling, there are always more tasks than time, and both your patients and coworkers can be difficult.

Habits for Nurses is different, because it was written by a registered nurse with a degree in psychology.

Author Beau Salts writes this book as a way to help nurses who currently feel overwhelmed by their job. As the first book in the Nurse Success Series, Habits For Nurses: An Injection Of Simplicity In A Stat World shows how you can improve your life while doing this often grueling profession. Salts includes tips and advice on how you can push back on negative thoughts, best communicate with patients, and create a healthy lifestyle. At the end of the book, the author provides a helpful list of tools you can use with this advice.
Unlike some similar books that are written from an outsider's perspective, the author provides first-hand experience and stories from when he worked as a registered nurse.
The book is easy to read and enjoyable. It’s lighthearted making it a great option to sit down with after a busy day. At 190 pages, it might take some time to read, but the investment is definitely worth it.

I am a health care provider and when I read this book Habits For Nurses: An Injection Of Simplicity In A Stat World by Beau Salts, I felt connected to every word in it because I realize that it's somewhat directly speaking to me. I loved that it's totally relatable and every tip and suggestion that it says are very useful for me. I thought that the techniues presented were very ideal and effective and I can try most of them and find out.
This self-help book was short but the contents are very sensible and it was written to inspire and to make every aspect of nursing a positive experience rather than a negative one. Stress is normal, even if you're not a nurse it's everywhere. By reading this book, I was more encouraged to do my best to become better with what I do rather than stress about it. Very well-done for this book!

“Habits for nurses: an injection of simplicity in a stat world” is the first book in a series called Nurses Success, written by Beau Salts, hard-working registered nurse.
It is not a long book; it has less than two hundred pages and it is a fast read. The author uses points to describe things and this is what makes it a fast and easy read. In fact, I read it in a couple of sittings. It is shown that the author knows what he is talking about. Apart from being a registered nurse he has a degree in psychology, so he is able to provide a lot of information and in the clearest possible way.
The advice and tips he gives in this book are things proved by him, which make them be more valuable. I will surely recommend reading Habits for nurses. I am giving this book four out of five stars.
