Description
Mary Hazard's journey as an NHS nurse spans 60 years, from her early days in post-war London to a lifetime of dedication to care.
Raised in a strict convent in rural Ireland, Mary's experiences were transformed when she began her training in London. She encountered the harsh realities of disease and poverty, but also found friendship and love amidst the challenges.
This memoir offers a heartwarming and humorous account of Mary's early years as a nurse, from her relationships with colleagues to her personal life, providing a unique insight into the history of the NHS and the evolution of nursing practice over six decades.
