This is their story.

She follows the history of the Alfred nurses from the establishment of the Alfred Hospital in 1971, and the beginning of nurse training in 1880, to reveal the hardships, pleasures and intrigues shared by Alfred nurses in the past 130 years of history.

Illustrated book. Title and authors name printed on front cover and spine (red ink on front and white ink on red background on spine) Background of front cover has three photographs: black and white photograph of a group of nurses (Malaya 1941 group portrait of Australian Army Nursing Service nurses of the 2/4th Casualty Clearing Station), colour photo of a nurse looking over her shoulder, and a coloured photo of an Indigenous nurse. The back cover has a summary of the book along with four coloured photographs: Portrait of a nun with constitution and quill (Sister Mary Augustine Aikenhead by Nicholas Joseph Cowley), A nurse in uniform with veil (Vivian Bull winkel 1941), an indigenous woman (Lois O'Donoghue) an enrolled nurse (Samuel Yenui)non-fictionFrom the First Nation caregivers who healed, birthed and nursed for millennia to the untrained and ill-equipped convict men and women who cared for the sick in the fledgling colony of New South Wales, nursing has been practised in Australia since the beginning. It would take the arrival of a group of dedicated Irish nuns, followed by Florence Nightingale-trained nurses - and decades of constant and continuing campaigning - to transform nursing into what it is today: the most trusted profession in Australia. Nurses will recognise their own lived experience in stories about training days, nurses' quarters, changing uniforms, changing roles, the arrival of male nurses and current pathways to nursing. Produced in collaboration with the Australian College of Nursing and the Congress of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Nurses and Midwives, with additional information provided by the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation, this is the story of nursing in Australia.nurses-australia-history, nursing-australia-history
