Item Description
Never has a book been as right for the times as the Kaiser Foundation School of Nursing: A Legacy of Disruptive Innovation by Deloras Jones and Jim D’Alfonso, editors. History can be a powerful, transformative teacher and this book holds the lesson plan for nursing professionals, nursing educators, and health care executives on how to match today’s challenges and navigate the unknown by disrupting the status quo and fearlessly innovating. This beautiful, photo-rich, curated book narrates the history of the untold story of the Kaiser Foundation School of Nursing (KFSN) through the voices of its alumni and faculty. This book captures stories of KFSN graduates and faculty through interviews and archival research, exposing an inspirational vision and leadership that responded to the demands of their time: the building of Grand Coulee Dam, World War II, transformation in healthcare financing, delivery and technology, and the revolutionary civil rights movement. KFSN and this book were built on the shoulders of the faculty; the disruptive innovators of nursing education who created an exceptional school of nursing, developed a cohort of 1,065 registered nurses over 30 years and shaped legacy elements that influence Kaiser Permanente and nursing more broadly, to this day.

A small yet incredibly powerful group of nurses, driven by professional ethics and caring science values, delivered on the promise of total health — and in doing so blazed a trail for all nurses who followed them into the profession.
