Viac o knihe

The book highlights Mary Breckinridge's groundbreaking establishment of the Frontier Nursing Service in 1925, which provided essential healthcare to remote families in eastern Kentucky through horseback nurses. It details her pioneering role in introducing nurse-midwifery to the U.S. and developing an effective, sustainable model for rural healthcare that has inspired similar initiatives globally. Breckinridge's innovative approach not only transformed public health in her region but also set a precedent for rural health services worldwide.
