By Sharon Hudacek, RN, EdD

In this second volume of the successful Making a Difference: Stories from the Point of Care, nurses from around the world share their powerful stories of how the art of nursing makes a difference in the lives of the patients they care for, the families they encourage and the communities they serve. The best-selling first edition of Making a Difference received the Best of Books Award for the best book published by the Honor Society of Nursing from 1999 to 2003.

The second volume includes more than 100 all-new stories by and about nurses. Collectively, the stories illustrate the deep caring of nurses in all types of settings-long-term care, hospice, schools, home care and traditional hospitals. Share the triumph, courage, concern, compassion, sorrow and joy as nurses and their patients come alive through these poignant stories.
