Memoir Excerpts from a Psychiatric Nurse Kindle Edition

“Eight Souls in the Madhouse is a precise insight to the failing mental health system for acute care. As someone that has entered a psych ward, it soothes my heart to know the cold in there was not just me."  — Anonymous

An empathetic perspective on institutionalized psychiatric care in America. Luciano's memoir details multiple patients and the nurse, as care is provided according to the policy and mandate. Spanning 20 years of healthcare, she includes discussion on the impact "standardized" psychiatric care has upon the mind and soul of the human under the scrubs. There are 7 stories of unethical treatment, outcomes, and life impacts. This book is an exacting memorial for a patient population diminished by psychiatric care.
