Finally got the book up on Kindle and sent announcements. Here's the copy:
To health professionals, their
programs, and their families:
I'm a retired psychiatrist in the
US.
I hope my Kindle e-book on stress
and suicide within the health professions can reach all levels, from student to
retiree. The title is
Intravenous Hope, Stat!
We Need to Help Stressed or
Suicidal Doctors, Nurses, Psychologists, Therapists and Their Relatives.
In this book I emphasize support
and prevention, while recognizing the despair of those reaching the end of
their coping abilities. The "We"
in the above subtitle implies that all of
us share a responsibility for health professionals' wellbeing.
This responsibility needs to be
borne not only by us as professionals, but also by our patients, our family
members, and the general public.
Many thanks for distributing this
note to those concerned about stress levels in your profession.
Sincerely,
