[Margaret Pilkington]

I am sure that I was told that some Enrolled Nurses had never sat an exam, or done formal training, and that they had become Enrlled Nurses because they had been auxilliaries for such a long time.

As a student I worked with one of these E.N.'s and she was a tartar...by that I mean that everything had to be done just so........with the patients comfort being paramount.
Lots of my own colleagues didn't like her, but I thought that her ways were right....and that patients comfort was important.
