On the Streets: Memoirs of a Chicago Home Health Nurse

Rating: 0 out of 5 stars

About this ebook
Many of my experiences as a Home Health Nurse in and
around the city of Chicago were terrifying, unbelievable,
and even very heartwarming. By sharing them, I hope
that those of you who have never been to places like
projects in the inner city can gain a new appreciation for
those who live there. They are just like us, except for life
circumstances that have dictated where they live. They
have hopes, dreams, and aspirations, too. Books are
meant to take readers to unknown places. May this little
book transport and inspire you.
