Nursing from the front line

Drawing on the nursing-focused podcast The Gritty Nurse, Amie Archibald-Varley and Sara Fung bring together accounts of the challenges, heartbreak, and humour associated with nursing. The book highlights nurses’ work with patients and the role nursing plays in health care, giving space to experiences the description says are often poorly understood or appreciated. Its emphasis is on the demands of the profession and the commitment involved in caring for patients, presented through stories from the front line.

Book overview

From the hosts of the hit podcast The Gritty Nurse, stories of the challenges, heartbreak and humour of life on the front line

One of the enduring lessons of the pandemic has been the pivotal role that nursing plays in health care--vital work that isn't widely understood or, sadly, appreciated. Sara Fung and Amie Archibald-Varley started the wildly popular The Gritty Nurse podcast to give voice to nurses all over the world, including more than 400,000 nurses in Canada. The authors have quickly become sought-after speakers and advocates for nurses and are called on regularly by the media to talk about a wide range of issues around the profession. In their first book, they take you to the front line of nursing to show the compassion, selflessness and dedication of professionals who not only give it all for their patients, but get up and do it over and over again.
