Just a Little Prick: My Nursing Life
Carol Bissett started nursing at 17 in the late 1960’s, finally retiring in 2014. During those years she had some breaks, emergency stops and did a few three-point turns.
This window into her world shows the way, we have over the years, treated both nurses and patients. How we view sickness and death, and the ways in which we deal with both.
Sad in parts, but written with Carol’s irreverent sense of humour, which brings the saying ‘life goes on’ very much to mind.

Can’t put down
Initially I didn’t like the writing style, however it grew on me. It’s a great insight into the nursing training and how it’s evolved. There are some funny stories and some sad but respectfully honest. Which follows her account of her career as a nurse,which was almost given up.

Excellent read.
A brilliant well written book. The author is warm, down to earth and honest about her thoughts and experiences. Can whole heartedly recommend.
