Kit Wilson, RN

Kit Wilson RN has been a registered nurse for almost two years now. She is no longer a rookie but competent and confident in her position as a staff nurse at Thompson Memorial Hospital. That is until January 2020, when she returns from vacation to discover her life, job, and health care will change forever. All because of what she thought was an overblown rumor.

Hospital nursing in 2020 was challenged with a global shutdown, deadly illness from a new viral contagion, loads of often changing and frequently conflicting information, and overburdened, sometimes strained, interpersonal relationships.

Why exactly was this situation so unusually rough for nurses?

Live through unprecedented 2020 with Kit as she struggles with hard work, social isolation, poor sleep, and merciless death along with inadequate safety resources in staff numbers and protective equipment. How does she keep her head above the waves? Context is everything.
