In comparison to midwifery, pediatrics, and general nursing, the work of mental health nurses is often unrecognized and seen by many as the poor relative of nursing. In Memoirs of a Black NHS Mental Health Nurse, Queen's Nurse and author, Carol Webley-Brown raises the profile of black mental health nurses. In this memoir, Webley-Brown tells how she joined the National Health Service as a student nurse more than forty years ago in 1976, undertaking her psychiatric training first. Memoirs of a Black NHS Mental Health Nurse shares an overview of her life that also includes work in accident and emergency nursing, marrying, having children, teaching in universities, being a general practice nurse, caring for her terminally ill-husband, volunteering in Ghana for more than four years, and a return to mental health nursing. Through her story, Webley-Brown seeks to break down the walls of racism and raise the profile of Black nurses. She starts the difficult conversation and slowly intends to dismantle institutional, structural, and systemic racism.
