Charlotte’s Rules for Nurses, a concise, reorganized version of Aikens' Studies in Ethics for Nurses, retains basic nursing concepts and the strong emphasis on how ethics affect patient care. Chapters, pages and paragraphs have been deleted from the original textbook. However, no additional words have been added. Every word belongs to Charlotte Aikens.
Miss Aikens is refreshingly direct, and never hesitant about addressing her concerns and even disappointments with some student and nursing behaviors, both professional and personal. Strategies for improvement are presented, always with the patient’s needs as top priority.
“Worry saps vitality more than any other cause ~The most important thing for a nurse to bring with her to school is a good conscience ~Sunshine increases our power to resist disease, quiets irritated nerves, and keeps us sweet tempered ~Nurses are not all as wise in the investment of their hard-earned money as they should be ~Self control keeps you from fighting, and keeps you from peace when fighting is needed ~It is necessary that an effort be made to look beneath the surface and appreciate the spirit which was behind a failure. ~The most severe tests of character often come in the doing of routine duties ~The nurse’s duty to herself should never be overlooked”
