A story of compassion, love and courage
With uncompromising honesty, Carol Gino strips the TV image to reveal the gritty truths of a nurse's life, from it's early, optimistic beginnings to the harsh realities - and incalculable rewards - that sustain her even in the face of a nurse's greatest professional hazard: burnout. How can she help the family of a terminally ill patient when the doctor can do nothing more? What can she do for a ten-year-old burn victim for whom most of consciousness is pain? How does she convince the doctor of her intuition that the patient cannot survive major surgery at a given time? And how can she leave all this behind at the end of her shift?
