Growing up in a small mining town in New South Wales, Australia,
during World War II, Beverley Keegan knew that she wanted to become
a nurse. Her adventures began when she traveled on an overnight
train to the big city of Sydney to commence her nursing training.
Once she became a nurse, her working life continued for more than
fifty years in various locations in Australia, New Guinea, and the
Red Centre around Alice Springs.
"Television, Bedpans, and Me" tells the true story of the many
adventures she encountered as she traveled around Australia during
her nursing career. Her story follows the amazing growth of
medicine from basic nursing in the fifties to the electronic age of
today. At the same time, the advent of television followed her as
she moved from state to state and from Sydney to the Australian
Outback.
This memoir shares the journey taken by one woman, including
humorous tales, pathos, and ordinary family occurrences that colour
all of our lives, while tracing the development of the miracles of
modern medicine. In "Television, Bedpans, and Me," Keegan lovingly
recounts her experiences as a registered nurse and recalls the
people she has nursed and worked with for over half a century.
