Summary "Making Good on Private Duty: Practical Hints to Graduate Nurses" by Harriet Camp Lounsbery is a guidebook for nursing professionals written in the early 20th century. The text offers practical advice on the nuances of private duty nursing, drawing on the author’s extensive experience and focusing on the importance of a compassionate approach to patient care, as well as the dynamics between nurses, patients, and their families. The opening portion of the book introduces the purpose of the guide, which is to support young graduate nurses by addressing common fears and uncertainties they may face in private duty situations. Lounsbery reflects on her own initial anxieties when taking on new patients and offers a wealth of practical wisdom based on her experiences. Emphasizing the need for emotional intelligence, the author provides insights on fostering strong relationships with patients and families while maintaining professionalism. The narrative underscores the importance of training and observation in developing the soft skills necessary for a successful nursing career, setting the stage for the detailed guidance that follows in the subsequent chapters.
