The fifth and final nostalgic nurse memoir by the author of Sunday Times bestselling books A Nurse in Time and A Nurse in Action - a must-read for fans of the BBC's Call the Midwife

Like so many other nurses, she went back to hospital and used any spare time she might have had bringing up her children and running her home. She later became Matron of the Lodge, a residential home for ladies of reduced circumstances. Born in 1915, she sadly died in 2001 at the age of eighty-five. Evelyn's five books about her life as a nurse have are published by Ebury Press with the titles- A Nurse in Time, A Nurse in Action, A Nurse and Mother, Matron at Last and finally Matron in Charge.
