I remember doing dressings and using Eusol ⦠and also I remember patients who were unlucky enough to get bed sores, used to have egg white and oxygen applied ⦠using Spenco mattresses which were like very soft duvet mattresses. Denise
New attitudes
Male nurses were able to train at The London from 1969 and were therefore becoming more commonplace, although acceptance of them was not universal, as Michael recalls:
there were some doctors who definitely did not ⦠[think] men should be nurses. During my period there were at least two ⦠I remember one was a consultant ⦠who wouldnât even have male nurses in his theatre ⦠in the seventies male nurses ⦠were a novelty. ⦠It was very late coming in [at The London] ⦠there were one or two sisters who always liked to have male nurses on the ward and actually you had to be careful because you were seen as being the favouriteâ¦. And career wise if you were accepted you actually progressed quite rapidly.
The attitudes of the senior nurses towards their students varied, with some encouraging nurses to question and explore their work, and others not at all:
[the charge nurse] ⦠rolled up his sleeves, did everything with you, whereas some of the sisters in those days really did just stay in the office and not come out. He was friendly and approachable, you could ask him anything and he made the atmosphere a very happy one so it was a good learning environment. It was great that I had him to start with because of his advice and his warning. At the end he gave me a very positive assessment and said, âYou know, I really like having students like you who are curious, who ask questions ⦠but be careful because not everybody will welcome thatâ.
