Abstract
This item record pertains to an excerpt from Redefining Retirement for Nurses: Finding Meaning in Retirement, which is provided free of charge by the publisher.
About this book: You've devoted years of your professional career contributing to society by providing direct care, research, education, and leadership. But with retirement on the horizon, what's next? Through the shared stories of 26 retired nurses from around the world, you'll discover that the skills and achievements you have gained in nursing form the foundation for a meaningful transition into retired life.
Redefining Retirement for Nurses will help expand your ideas of retirement by sharing opportunities available to you and enhancing your understanding of how to leverage your talents in new ways. Authors Joanne Evans and Patricia Tabloski present experiences from retired nurses who have found meaning in various paths they have chosen after retiring from full-time nursing positions. Whether you are considering a "second career," volunteer opportunities, travel, or relaxing at home with a family and friends, this book will provide the advice and tools you need to envision what your retired life should look like.
