Creative Nursing – TOC 27 #3
In It Together: Engaging the Public in Public Health
It’s fitting that Issue #3, whose working title for more than a year has been “The Public Health Issue,” has a worldwide range of authorship, in age, geography, and walks of health-care life. For all the tumult of 2021, this issue of Creative Nursing is an antidote – people doing brave, creative, insightful things to promote the common good. From children who need to learn how to eat healthy and sleep better, to adolescents and young adults who need correct information about sex, to adult citizens who need to feel safe and to be treated equitably and compassionately by society and by their caregivers, to health care professionals in all arenas who deserve respect, and to all of us as we try to remember to wash our hands, we are all in this together.
