註釋Warm hearts and caring hands traces the important role of nursing in the history of South Florida. It begins with the compelling story of how pioneer women nursed their friends and neighboors as part of their everyday life on the frontier. With the founding of the City of Miami in 1896, the first formally trained nurses joined these heroic women. They found new opportunities when hospitals sprouted up as a result of the ever-growing population. They rallied through hurricanes, the Depression, World War I & II and the Vietnam War. They struggled with segregation and soared when the Civil Rights era opened doors. They came together to serve the waves of immigrants that transformed Miami. Through it all, Miami's nurses remained focused on the patient as they adapted to new challenges in technology, management and life style."--Inside front jacket flap.
