Hello!
I enjoyed your laughter
seminar at the Seattle
Dialysis Conference. The
connection with patients
seem stronger when humor
is incorporated. Humor
is truly good for the
soul. I use humor with
my patients along with
the staff. The load we
carry as healthcare
professionals seems
lighter with laughter. I
would like to share your
outlook with co-workers
at our quarterly home
therapy meeting
05/19/10, (last minute
notice, I know). Your
schedule is extremely
busy from what I
gathered at the
conference but I would
greatly appreciate it if
there could be a way to
present your unique way
of looking at nursing
with laughter. It must
be amazing to share your
experiences and touch
every person listening.
I know that I can't get
you out of mind and you
definitly made a
difference in my life
and career.

I just wanted to tell
you how much I enjoyed
listening to you at the
conference this past
week in Seattle. I only
hope one day to have the
ability that you have to
teach and be a
motivator. Out of all
the lectures and
speakers I heard over
those past 4 days, yours
really hit home with me
and I hope to see and
hear your lectures
again. Thanks again for
who you and what you
represent to the Nurses
of today!

Saw
your DVD on pharmacology
and really loved it. I
am an instructor for
psychiatric technicians
and wondered if you have
any DVDs on your subject
of Neurotransmitter In
Health and Disease. Your
ability to simplify and
make education fun is
just unparalleled.

has taken a complex topic and simplified it to the point that IMMUNOLOGY
can actually be FUN!

packed seminars. She is author of the books

write books on health, but very few can make
them both thoroughly informative and
entertaining. Barb Bancroft makes complex health
topics easily understandable, appealing and
hilarious.

Recently I went down to Washington and
wrote the NCLEX exam. I work full time in the OR and as you might
guess, I don't get to work with a lot of drugs on a regular basis.
About one third of my exam seemed to be Pharmacology related and the
only studying I did for these parts was to look at Barb's notes and
watch her DVDs. Well I passed the NCLEX and I know I owe a great
deal of thanks to Barb and her ability to make Pharmacology for the
rusty make a lot of sense. Thanks Barb!!!
