The True Dope on How to Combine Nursing

And a Love of Travel

 

Highway Hypodermic by Epstein LaRue may be a one-of-a-kind book. That is a rarity but apparently true.  After a search on Amazon and a couple of other online bookstores, I found nothing on the subject of making nursing-on-wheels a career. 

LaRue says she wrote this book so that a professional nurse “can make an informed decision about your career change into travel nursing.”  But Highway Hypodermics will  also be valuable for anyone considering a nursing career of any kind for Larue doesn't mince words. She tells all she knows about the distractions, difficulties and benefits of becoming any kind of a nurse as well as fully informing readers about a nursing niche that few others could tell them about.

LaRue’s strength is twofold.  She speaks from experience--lots of it--and she speaks in a casual, straight-from-the-heart voice.  Her honesty is impeccable.  My favorite chapters are those in which she reveals her own journals.  By doing so, she opens a window on her world--both personal and in terms of her chosen career.  We often look to memoir to learn more about ourselves; perhaps all those considering nursing will find it an advantage to do that before they choose this difficult but rewarding field.  By combining this mirror to her life in a how-to book, LaRue offers up a nursing guide like no other.
