Book Review: Nursing Students with Disabilities

I was extremely impressed with the book Nursing Students with Disabilities Change the Course by Donna Carol Maheady, Ed.D., C.P.N.P., RN. This book gave really stories about how nursing students obtained their degrees and careers.

The book took you on a journey of several students. They all had varying physical disabilities. Some needed wheelchairs, some had diabetes, some were blind, and others had other disabilities. Their stories were honest. It wasn't a sugar coated look at how easy a nursing career could be. The students shared that even if it was difficult work,it was all worth it to follow their dream.

I enjoyed how the book was written. It was easy to understand. The book was also real to life.

I would recommend this book to obviously students with disabilities who want to be a nurse. Also, I think nursing professors would benefit from reading this book so they understand better about students with disabilities.
