Written by a nurse, Where Night Is Day reveals the specialized work of ICU nursing and its unique perspective on illness, suffering, and death. It takes place over a thirteen-week period, the time of the average rotation of medical residents through the ICU. As the author, James Kelly, reflects on the rise of medicine, the nature of nursing, the argument of care versus cure, he offers up an intimate portrait of the ICU, the patients who live and/or die there, and the medical professionals who work there"--Publisher's Web site. aElectronic reproduction.bPalo Alto, Calif. :cebrary,d2013.nAvailable via World Wide Web.nAccess may be limited to ebrary affiliated libraries. 0aIntensive care nursingzNew Mexico. 0aIntensive care unitszNew Mexico. 7aElectronic books.2local2 aebrary, Inc. 0aCulture and politics of health care work.40uhttp://site.ebrary.com/lib/rucke/Doc?id=10669195zAn electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click to view c61721d61721
