R.A. Boyd is an Emergency Nurse and in this collection of poetry and prose from the front line, she takes you on a journey through that difficult world.

From patients who make assumptions on first impressions, exhausting long hours, to COVID-19 and the fallout from the vaccination program, these deeply personal writings will give you an insight into that world from the side you rarely see.

In a world slowly backing away from the heroic status it briefly accorded its medical professionals, she dares to ask that most pertinent of questions, "Why would anybody choose to be an Emergency Nurse?"
