Code Blue: A Collection of Nursing Essays (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

In "Code Blue: The Fragrance of Caring," author and nurse Jane Ha opens the doors to the often unseen world of healing, heartache, and humanity within a hospital's walls. A Korean immigrant navigating the U.S. healthcare system, Ha shares a deeply personal and profoundly moving collection of essays that chronicle her journey as a nurse-and as a person-growing in courage, empathy, and resilience.

Through vivid, emotionally rich storytelling, Ha introduces readers to unforgettable patients and the life lessons they unwittingly leave behind. Each essay stands alone as a tender tribute to those moments when human connection triumphs over clinical detachment. Whether witnessing miraculous recoveries or facing devastating loss, Ha reflects on how these experiences shaped her professional identity and illuminated the universal truths about compassion, vulnerability, and the quiet power of care.

A heartfelt exploration of the healing spirit, this collection is a gentle yet powerful reminder that sometimes, the most extraordinary stories happen in the most ordinary places.
