Notes

This slim volume recounts Judy Smith's seven-year career as an Outpost Nurse in Saskatchewan and Alberta First Nations communities. Although she comments on political/legal matters pertaining to Indigenous life, Smith's stories are primarily anecdotes about the challenges of working and living in northern communities in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Her stories are brief, personal, and eventful, balancing humor against tragedy.
