Overview

Nurses are independent and collaborative partners in health care. Historically, however, the image of nursing has been entrenched in co-dependence and a perceived victimization within the nursing profession. It is time for nurses of all levels to join together to change this image and accept the responsibility to demonstrate not just their role but also a collaborative vision as leaders in health care. The author, using personal real-life stories, will take you on a self-reflective journey of your own personal leadership development as a nurse. Through this reflective process, you will also begin to understand your connection to the greater profession and your responsibility to those we serve. As nurses we must not waiver on our standards of practice and our code of ethics, and we must strive to educate others in regard to our purpose and everlasting dedication to maintaining our standards of care.

In We Are Gatekeepers veteran nurse Jaimee Gerrie calls upon her colleagues to look anew at the crucial role they have in the life and death journey of patients as well as fellow caregivers. When she writes that nurses have the obligation to own who we are... she knows whereof she speaks -- and she speaks from a place of experience, competence, and compassion. Jaimee has seen it all and in her book she tells you what you need to know. We Are Gatekeepers is an indispensable guide to everyone who wants to be not only a good nurse but, like Jaimee herself, a great one.
