The Shift: One Nurse, Twelve Hours, Four Patients' Lives by Theresa Brown Book Review

Name: David A
Rating: 5.0 out of 5 stars
Title: A wonderful book about the unsung heroes of the hospital - physician's perspective
Date: Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 9, 2021
Review: The Shift is a wonderful book. I am reviewing it from the perspective of both a reader as well as a hospital-based physician.

The Shift is the most accurate depiction of a floor nurse's daily existence that I have ever read. It vividly describes the hectic and often chaotic demands that are placed on the people that actually take care for us when we get sick. The profession has always been demanding, both in terms of the amount of work involved as well as the responsibilities nurses shoulder, and that current runs through the narrative. The book reads fast, much as the typical shift an RN experiences runs fast - there is little time for idle gossip or relaxation. I found the read compelling, and I continually marveled at how accurately Ms/Dr (the author is a PhD in English, and it shows in the writing) Brown depicts and translates for a reader the care she and others provide, from the medical language that is used to the technology that must be mastered. I read the entire book in 2 days. Surprisingly, I found myself kind of exhausted at the end, much like most nurses are at the end of their shift, many having been too busy to even stop and have lunch and often staying 30 minutes after their shift has ended (all unpaid, of course), "giving report."

Likening a nurse's work to the bicycle she rides to and from work, the author states, "Nurses are a hospitals mechanics, it's sockets and gears." Oh, but they are so much more than that, and it is to Ms. Brown's credit that she avoids glorifying all they do in the hospital. She merely describes a typical day, and the actions speak for themselves. Those actions reveal what any good doctor will tell you - nurses are the unsung heroes of the hospital. The are the glue that holds it together with a combination of skill and compassion. They are the heart and soul of those institutions, in that they focus on the humanity of the patients they care for. The ability to do that is harder and harder in todays world of mandated computerized record keeping, a fact that is well demonstrated during Ms. Brown's day. Nurse's are often a catalyst for improved care, as demonstrated when the author gently asks a physician if he will stay late and operate in the middle of the night rather that take the easy way out and wait until morning. Nurses are cheerleaders for their patients, encouraging them when they face the terrifying unknown, such as whether or not a bone marrow transplant will take. They are the early warning system, the front line monitors for when patients take a turn for the worse. Almost all nurses are perfectionists, and Ms. Brown details that repeatedly during her shift. Finally, and most important, nurses are compassionate. The author describes one particularly difficult patient, Candace, who stands out in the book. Every practitioner - from nurse's aides (a sadly vanishing breed due to hospitals' relentless drive for profits), to transporters, to technicians, to doctors - will easily recognize her. What is not so easy is to recognize the pain within argumentative and frankly unpleasant patients like Candace. Nurses are far more likely to do so than are anyone else in the hospital. It is why, for many, nursing is a "calling" more than it is a job. When nurses say they "love their patients," they really mean it - they find a way to express empathy for everyone who comes through the door. I found how Ms. Brown demonstrates her empathy for Candace in The Shift a particular strength of the narrative.

I love this book as a read that pays tribute to what are all too often the unrecognized heroes of hospital care. We have seen people applauding nurses and other health care providers walking out from a 12-hour shift after taking care of Covid-19 patients. The Shift gives you a glimpse of what they have been doing. Nurses do it because, as Ms. Brown simply states, "It's what we do." Oh, but they do so much more!

Title: This tale of one RN's single, pressure-packed day will resonate with medical personnel and lay people alike
Date: Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 28, 2016
Review: "The Shift" by Theresa Brown, RN, is a very good read for medical personnel and lay people alike. I'm in IT and enjoyed it a great deal. I shared it with my wife who works at a hospital. She would see right through a flimsy or dishonest account. She, too, found it compelling and pronounced it a very accurate depiction of a workday and the constant struggle to keep up, stay up and provide quality care. As Brown indelibly puts it, steeling herself to face another day:

"Amid the many uncertainties of the shift there is one thing I know for sure. Am I ready and up to the job? Yes. Today, and every day, for the sake of my patients I have no other option; the answer has to be, and always is, Yes."

What makes Brown's account stand out: she's got serious writing chops. Not just "she can write," but she was an English professor at Tufts before a career change put her into nursing. So, beyond being just a good writer, she understands the art and craft of writing and storytelling well enough that she was employed by a prestigious university to explain it to others.

The quote above is at the beginning of Brown's day. She takes you through one long day's shift. So, her book is bracketed by day's end. Brown sums up her day as follows:

"I will do this all again tomorrow and then there will be another shift and another and another. To be in the eternal present of illness and unease, never knowing the future. It’s where my patients live so I, ever hopeful, live there with them."

Title: A Day in the Life of a Nurse
Date: Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 5, 2017
Review: Nurse Teresa's former position as an English professor prompted her to use scattered literary references throughout this book, and while they add an extra level of sophistication and intelligence when compared to other medical memoirs, the real strength and purpose of her book remains exactly as described in the title: offering personal insight into what a typical twelve-hour shift is like for a nurse working in a teaching hospital's oncology ward.

This isn't a sensational behind-the-scenes tell-all book, and it isn't overly sentimental. It's a straightforward, occasionally too-detailed, account of the exhausting work she does with and for patients, and the tremendous amount of responsibility she bears for the well-being and comfort of the patients assigned to her care. Her shift involves plenty of redundant routine, marked by mountains of mandatory paperwork and detailed documentation of every little thing, (which has to be checked, rechecked, and initialed by yet another nurse) but it's her interaction with and compassion for patients and their needs that make this nurse, and others like her, shine.

If you ever wanted to know what it'd be like to be a nurse, read this book. It may not tell you the entire story, but it's a great start. Four and a half stars.
