From the very beginning, in 1948, the National Health Service (NHS) actively recruited Irish women and men were to train and work as nurses in British hospitals. By the 1960s approximately 30,000 Irish-born nurses were working across the institution, making up around 12% of all nursing staff. Based on 45 interviews, this book tells the stories of Irish nurses in their own words using rich oral history and photographs.
