The Flying Nurse

Prue Wheelwright is still in her thirties but she's already had a fascinating, action-packed career. As a nurse and midwife she has worked in remote Australia as well as parts of the world that are remote to Australia, thanks to her work with Médécins sans Frontières. From treating patients at the most basic bush hospital in Ethiopia to looking after members of the Saudi royal family in Riyadh to the work she has just begun with the Royal Flying Doctor Service, Prue has seen the extremes of humanity and has the stories to prove it.

Above all this is the story of a woman who is passionate about her work - that work just happens to be in a profession that means she puts her heart on the line, every single day. And she wouldn't change a thing.
