I will Help You

Norwegian title: Jeg skal hjelpe deg

Vigdis J. Reisæter found her dream job as a nurse but gave up after ten years. In this book, she opens a door on everyday life in an old people’s home, telling powerful tales of people’s lived lives that do not appear in budgets or patients’ records. She directs a spotlight on the conditions nurses need to provide proper care and, by extension, on the way we care for the elderly in Norway today. This is her story.
