More About the Author

Linda Chitwood is a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist practicing in Memphis, TN. All proceeds from the sale of her first work of fiction, Unnatural Selection, go to help less fortunate children in rural Como, Mississippi with basic needs such as school clothes, books, and supplies. It's an area deeply mired in the cycle of poverty, so if you like this book, please tell others. You could change a child's life!
Linda is also the author of numerous non-fiction books on health care and nursing, editor of health care related publications, writer for popular and health care magazines, and is a former op-ed columnist for the Memphis Health Care News. She volunteers with the Homeless Animals Relief Project in north Mississippi. This organization provides free or very low cost spay/neuter surgery to animals living with the poor, in order to reduce the population of unwanted animals. You can learn more about this group at: homelessanimalsreliefproject.org, or visit their facebook page.

This review is from: Perioperative Nursing (Springhouse Notes) (Paperback)

I recommend this book for new nurses starting in the OR. It is a condensed book to help you orient yourself to the environment and the patient care you will be giving in the OR.
