{"product_id":"9781848975446","title":"Why Did I Want to be a Nurse?","description":"Jacquie Baines began her career as a nurse in 1949, at the Paddington Green Children's Hospital. In this first volume of her autobiography, she examines her early career, her love of being in theatre, the care she took of her patients, and pioneering surgical techniques as they were introduced. Baines also examines the differences between surgery in her day and in our present world.\u003cp\u003eA move to Edgware General Hospital led Baines from children's nursing to taking care of adults as well as children, having to transfer her skills to a brand new generation of person. She speaks, amongst other things, about 'the art of nursing' - the way in which nursing in the United Kingdom was once a true vocation, and how its appearance - and, indeed, the appearance of many who work within the medical profession - has altered over time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Olympia Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47050939695344,"sku":"9781848975446","price":10.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781848975446_p0.jpg?v=1763751628","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781848975446","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
