Jean Becomes a Nurse

by Yvonne Trewin SRN

For the many girls who feel an instinctive urge towards the profession of Nursing but who hesitate to embark on a career, the demands, sacrifices and recompenses of which they may not appreciate, Miss Trewin (herself a nurse) has written this book.
In it, the girl interested in such a career, will find the answers to the many questions which confront her, and will be immeasurably aided in making her decision by experiencing the real hospital atmosphere which the author has so truly reproduced.
There is a real story in this book. Miss Trewin imparts the facts in "novel" form following the career of Jean (the Jean of the previous book in the series - Jean Tours a Hospital) from her first day of embarking on her chosen profession to the time she finds herself a fully-fledged Nurse. The story is absorbingly and interestingly told, but truthfully and without embroidery.
