A clear informative picture book about the nurse and how to treat sick or old people.
Nurses often work in hospitals. They look after sick people or patients. They take their temperature and blood pressure. Or they bring their medicine and check if they are fine. Nurses also talk to doctors to know how to treat each patient. But nurses can do other things too: assist at surgery, take care of the elderly in old people's homes or visit patients at their homes.

This is a simple, clearly-written explanation of the various jobs and roles of nurses. It would be a great resource for career exploration for kids and therefore would make a useful addition to school and classroom libraries. In addition to school use, this would be very helpful and reassuring for a child who will be undergoing a medical procedure or going to the hospital. It's a nice introduction to the people and routines of hospitals and could be a great aid in preparing to go. - BookWorks
