Hurry up Nurse 2 - London calling

"

From the first night when they encounter a screaming girl and discover cockroaches in the kitchen, these nurses' know they are in for challenging days ahead!

London, 1980. Draughty windows, radiators that won't switch off, food that goes missing in the night and constant noise when trying to sleep in tiny rooms. Will these nurses' from all over the United Kingdom manage the stresses and strains of learning and shift work in a specialist hospital?

This sequel to Hurry up Nurse: memoirs of nurse training in the 1970s, follows our young nurse to London. Here she moves into a nurses' home and takes up further training at a hospital in the heart of the capital’s East End.

Hurry up Nurse 2 is another charming nursing biography that includes humour and compassion. There's a lot of nursing and medical history to pack in as the experiences are set in a hospital specialising in heart and chest surgery. Cancer chemotherapy is in its infancy, but open heart surgery is fast becoming routine. Tuberculosis is an ever present danger, so there’s a lot to learn and a lot to avoid. Added to all of this is the enquiring mind of a young nurse who, having been told to avoid the hospital God squad does the exact opposite.

You will meet some lovable characters in this account. The charming Mr Robinson sees potential in a party-loving young nurse. The energetic Mrs Chang keeps the trainees on their toes. The young nurses still growing up find it a challenge to live in a rundown nurses’ home. A night porter who enjoys a midnight chat, and of course the patients’ who touch all of their lives.

If you liked the first book in this series, you will love this one.
