    About this ebook

    A memoir of the times when Diploma nurses were educated in Hospital schools of Nursing, amid controversy with the Nursing leaders, who believed this learning would be better in college settings. The author gives an historical insight to the way things were and how in her opinion, this diploma nurse was right for this time. Wilson was a diploma student herself, and also a nursing administrator and educator of both diploma students and the modern degree nursing student. Wilson gives a historical view of this unique era, lasting from the 1940’s through the end of the 20th century. She invites you to take this three-year journey with this diploma student. You will find it humorous and heartwarming. A product of the era, this nurse was unique, with a special touch of grace. Though she is now fading from the hospital scene, may her legacy be remembered.
