Beschreibung
It was the 1970's. In a Midlands town, a dedicated team of district nurses - affectionately known as 'the evening girls' - worked tirelessly through the evening (often until midnight and beyond when things didn't go as planned) to provide nursing care to the local people in their own homes. Today, nearly fifty years later, the remaining members of the team still meet as friends and reminisce about some of the homes they visited and their experiences with the unique individuals they encountered. Seen through the eyes of Alice - the youngest of the evening girls - these stories are a glimpse into a bygone era of nursing, offering a humorous, moving and heartwarming look at the relationships between nurses and patients.running out of career options,
Leaving school with few qualifications, Alice followed her calling, (felt she was left with little choice) but to take up nursing. In The Evening Girls, Alice explores her first year on the job as a district nurse. She reflects on the rapid changes in the profession, the unforgettable people she encountered, and her journey of discovering not only a passion for her work, but also an enduring bond with her colleagues. This heart-warming memoir, Alice's third "Reflections" book, is infused with her signature bittersweet humour, tinged with moments of poignancy. It offers a glimpse into the world of a dedicated and caring profession. Alice's compelling collection of stories on life, death and everything in-between, offers a nostalgic account of nursing in the 1970's* ~ Amy B. Garratt Poet / Author
