Description

Using the voices of Greenlandic and Canadian Inuit nurses and nursing students, the author explores what it means to become and be Inuit nurses. She highlights the strengths they bring and challenges they face and argues that the unique knowledge and abilities they bring have the greatest impact on patient care and recovery and these need to be acknowledged, supported and embraced by Arctic educational and healthcare systems.
