Sisterhood's Ordeals: Shared Interests and Divided Loyalties in Finnish Wartime Nursing Henriksson, Lea The aim of this article is to highlight early Finnish nursing in a special wartime context. Occupational development of nursing is envisioned by addressing at a more general leve1 women's mutual relationships and the opportunities and obstacles of the process of occupational development. The article debates two main issues. Establishing occupational domains was a process of selecting suitable labour force and training women morally, as well. The hierarchical order of nursing is manifested especially in the questions of auxiliary labour and the so-called amateur scare. War was still a time of romanticism with visible military and religious models, but women also struggled for their right to have rights. 2022-12-19T11:43:04Z 2022-12-19T11:43:04Z 1999 journal article Henriksson, Lea. «Sisterhood’s ordeals : shared interests and divided loyalties in finnish wartime nursing».
