Publisher's Synopsis
The Stationary Nurse is a humorous narrative centered about the training days of a nurse, not just but rather a male nurse. Nursing in Australia, humour, travel and adventure. These words take the reader through what it meant to be a man in a women's world of nursing. The book looks into the dying years of hospital based nursing training in the nineteen seventies, looking at what makes nurses tick, their adventures and fun. It is, in part a biography of the men who found themselves ruffling the skirt of Florence Nightingale. It will give you a taste of what it means to be a man traveling in a women's universe, where to make it in this profession of nursing, means you are just- "One of the girls"
