Book Description
"The South African nursing experience over 90 years has been adequately documented and may be found on the shelves of public libraries, university libraries and hospital libraries as well as between the pages of "struggle literature" such as Critical Health. This book does not attempt academic analysis per se, rather is it an authentic oral and written account of the experiences, which shaped the careers of black nurses. The sample of respondents was picked at random across the country, as time and private purse allowed. They were assured anonymity in that only first or nicknames would be used as a rule, except where a surname carries historical significance. In 1994, when the winds of changes blew democracy across the political landscape, the South African nursing profession too was gusted along the road of revolution. It was no longer a question of whether change would come, but when. Nonceba Lubanga in her chapter "Nursing in South Africa" has been given a detailed account of the struggle of black nurses, referring to them as "the unsung heroes of the African struggle in South Africa."--P. [4] of cover.
