A Vacuum and a Torch

Debbie Moore-Black RN has worked in the ICU for over 30 years. Her nursing stories offer ideas to improve care, discuss dilemmas facing patients and healthcare providers, provide a little humor, and offer opinions and insight on dying & dignity.

She describers her stories as “a composite of fiction and facts and are based on the things I’ve seen and experienced. These stories are not for everyone, but they are topics that I believe shouldn’t remain in the silence.”
