An assortment of amusing, interesting, surprising and emotional stories. A pleasure to read. Her best yet!

I like how she explains things as she goes along AND includes a glossy at the end as well of quite a few medical terms/diseases etc. I've read quite a few medical memoirs so I'd heard and knew most of these but I think it's a good idea to have this for people who haven't read many or any of this type of book before.

A & E tales-aarrrgggh! An assortment of amusing, interesting, surprising and emotional stories. A pleasure to read. Her best yet!

Placement on the children's ward. Excellent inclusion-Sarah Jane's step-daughter Claire had just completed training as a nurse and she gives a comparison of how it is now to go alongside Sarah Jane's experiences.

So varied, now caring for patients who have attempted suicide. Now a placement on the operating theatre site suite. Practical jokes are played on the students, Sarah Jane was on the receiving end of a few of these. Really interesting! Work place affairs-I love behind the scenes books like this!

Oh, I've really enjoyed this! Just my sort of book. It's been really interesting to hear about the different and varied.medical field she's worked in.

Next placement at a maternity hospital. This is such an amusing scene-how this is written. A lovely chapter with a chuckle at the end. A really feel-good read at this point. Obviously, with this profession, there are harder times too.
