520 $aMary T. Sarnecky, who had first-hand knowledge about U.S. Army Nurse Corps inner workings as an active duty officer, presents her analysis documenting U.S. Army Nurse Corps from the early 1970s to the beginning of the 21st century in the Borden Institute's latest release, A Contemporary History of the U.S. Army Nurse Corps. She addresses a remarkable episode in the organization's evolution, a period characterized by a series of progressive steps empowering Nurse Corps officers to assume key command and leadership positions in Army Medical Department. "It is imperative that we review the "lessons learned" from this period in our nursing history and utilize the experiences, knowledge, and leadership of these extremely talented and dedicated professional nurses," said Gale S. Pollock, Major General (Retired), CRNA, FACHE, FAAN, 22nd Chief, U.S. Army Nurse Corps. The book explores vital roles of Army Nurse Corps in supporting and sustaining high-level military operations that began with Operation Desert Storm. Professionalism, clinical competency, adaptability, and flexibility remain the hallmark of Army Nurse Corps. In tandem with her previous work (A History of the U.S. Army Nurse Corps published in 1999), Sarnecky offers a wealth of scholarly research narrated in her straightforward style imparting a rich institutional history of which all professional nurses should be proud--Publisher's description.
