What's Next?

The highly acclaimed author of Becoming Nursey and Admit One, Kati Kleber, BSN, RN, CCRN, delivers provocative and candid answers to the basic questions about professional development that every nurse should know. Many hospitals provide information about how to be a successful charge nurse, nurse mentor, and nurse preceptor, but not real, practical advice. Kleber addresses these personal and professional options and goes into detail about some of the more practical advice for successfully evolving into a formal or informal nurse on your unit—from learning how to be an effective charge nurse to learning how to precept and mentor new nurses. While most books about professional development are written for management-level nurses or people in non-clinical positions, What’s Next? is specifically directed toward professional development from the practical point of view of a bedside nurse.
