The bestselling author of A Nurse’s Story is back with more insider stories. The Making of a Nurse PDF
Tilda Shalof has been a caregiver all her life — at home for her family, at work for strangers — but her skills didn’t come easily. From when she was a child taking care of her sick parents to her current position on an ICU team in one of Canada’s largest hospitals, there have always been daunting challenges and worthy rewards for her work. With her trademark humour, unflinching honesty, and skilled storytelling, Shalof describes her experiences becoming the capable nurse she is today.
After graduation from nurse’s college, finding no jobs in Toronto, Shalof travelled to Tel Aviv, Israel, to work in a hospital for the first time, finding adventure and young love in the process. A summer stint as a camp nurse came with requests for condoms, strange allergies (“Misty has reactions, but we don’t know to what”), and overly protective parents (also known as “helicopter parents” for their tendency to hover over their children). The Making of a Nurse contains these stories and much more, and they are comforting, entertaining, shocking, funny, heart-warming and heart-wrenching. From hospitals to home care, they will give readers a glimpse into the life of a nurse and the hidden medical world.

Tilda does it again!
January 3, 2015
I was so happy to find another book by this amazing nurse. I just wish there were more like her around, or maybe what I mean is that there were more nursesw speaking up to tell their part of our story. Too many “administrative” or “professional” nurses who are only interested in academics and personal advancement are publishing their opinions, and not enough of all those amazing nurses who came into the profession to serve and care for others. I know it’s not fashionable to talk that way today, and I certainly hope it doesn’t give people the idea that we are to be ripped off, but the fact of the matter is that so many of us are actually there not only to make a living, but to help others. This message comes through in Tilda Shalof’s book, and I think this is a very imortant message, in a world where people have lost so much trust in others.
I was touched to see Tilda’s bravery in exposing what made her a nurse and a person who can see others and care for them in spite of differences, which is the core of nursing theory.

Tilda Shalof’s autobiography
September 5, 2013
I read this book with the high hopes of gaining insight on what it takes to be a nurse. While Shalof touches on this subject, she fills the book with her personal life outside of nursing such as her travels, family and her coworkers sexual encounters. I found the book to be dull, boring, and often far,far away from anything having to do with the making of a nurse. I really felt this book could or should have been Tilda Shalof’s complete autobiography, in which nursing is simply one of the many elements.

I thought this book was a great introduction to the emotion and physical tasks associated with being a nurse. Shalof shares the ups and downs of choosing nursing as a career, and shared realistic stories that I think anyone aspiring to be a nurse should read.
Very touching book

I loved this book. I picked it up on a Monday and I didn’t put it down until Monday night when I finished it. This book moved me.

Seems to lag after a bit

The author starts out in an interesting fashion, but it seems to lag midway to the end. Highlights at times, but needs to move a bit more.
