- Summary
- COI synopsis: Nurses aren’t what they used to be. In many areas of modern medicine they have swapped the old Florence Nightingale image for that of a highly skilled medical technician. London Line visits Guy’s Hospital, London to see some of the dramatic changes that have brought nursing into the age of advanced medical technology - yet still keeps that precious nurse-patient relationship intact.
