Sommario/riassunto

B is for Balance is about the individual nurse – the professional, the multi-tasker, the ‘be all things to all people'leader. While the first edition of B is for Balance was well-received and has been a great resource to nurses and other professionals, the second edition has been updated to focus on 12 steps to balance, including engagement, focus, sleep deficits, fatigue, diet, re-inventing one's career, and the need for each of us to live longer and to live well.
