Description

Explore the evolution of medical care in Britain with this well-researched study on the development of fever hospitals and fever nursing. Focusing on the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, this book offers new insights into how nursing roles and education changed during a transformative era in healthcare. This historical analysis tracks the rise of a vital branch of the nursing profession that emerged in the nineteenth century, only to see its importance decline in the second half of the twentieth century. By examining the lives of key figures and applying the theoretical work of Goffman and Foucault, the text explains how medical advances changed the way fever nurses operated within the national service. This book is an essential resource for those interested in the social history of medicine and the professionalization of nursing. It provides a clear look at how specialized medical roles were shaped by the societal and scientific shifts of the time.
