An invaluable resource for health professionals and students to explore the experiences and actions of a group of nurses and midwives who came together as a result of the research project Nursing Narratives: Racism and the Pandemic to expose institutionalised racism in the sector and its impact on the lives of Black and Brown individuals.
Racism in health care is an issue that affects staff retention, staff well-being, and quality of patient care. The Nursing Narratives project aimed to collate the experiences of racism by healthcare workers during the pandemic and previously in their place of work in order to encourage reflection and advocate for change. In this impactful book nurses and midwives from a variety of organisations offer their experiences, reflecting on the successes and difficulties of challenging racism within healthcare institutions. Each chapter recounts an individual’s personal experience with the overall aim of empowering others, including providing white allies with a deep understanding of how racism operates within healthcare and how they can make progressive changes in their practice. With opportunities for critical reflection throughout and workshop plans to support educators, this is an essential book that gives voice to unheard narratives and raises awareness for all.
