Based on new research using previously unpublished sources, this
compelling text is an in-depth study of the history of nurse
education in Ireland, presenting a new authoritative account of the
history of the traditional system of training in Ireland.
Introduced as part of the reforms of hospital nursing in the late
nineteenth century, apprenticeship nurse training was a vocational
extension of secondary education. Residing outside the mainstream
of higher educational provision it provided nurses with the
knowledge and technical skills for sick nursing, whilst also
functioning to socialise them into the role of hospital worker and
introduce to them nursing's value systems. This method of training
provided a ready supply of skilled, efficient, inexpensive and
loyal workers. In a chronological period spanning over a century,
the book traces the development of modern nursing in Ireland,
bringing the hidden role of nurses and nursing to the fore. It
analyzes and describes the development, provision and gradual
reform of hospital nursing, taking into account the social,
cultural, political and economic factors that led to its
establishment, its continuance, and eventual demise.
