	Order The Nature of Suffering and The Goals of Nursing by Betty Ferrell and Nessa Coyle - Order this book today and benefit the ELNEC Project. The essence of nursing care continually exposes nurses to suffering. Although they bear witness to the suffering of others, their own suffering is less frequently exposed. This slim volume attempts to give voice to the suffering nurses witness in patients, families, colleagues, and themselves. By making this suffering visible, the authors wish to honor it and hope that we may learn from it.
