Why read it?
1 author picked Oh, Nurse! as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Although this book wasn’t as smooth or polished as some and used occasional rough language, I was curious to learn more about Mr. Daniels and his 30-year career as a nurse. Full of anecdotes and the kind of “fireside chat” nurses like to exchange, the narrative is very readable and offers insight into a male perspective on the nursing profession.
From Cheryl's list on wellbeing for nurses.
