Empire of Care: Nursing and Migration in Filipino American History - American Encounters / Global Interactions
Catherine Ceniza Choy
In western countries, including the United States, foreign-trained nurses constitute a crucial labor supply. The largest number of these nurses come from the Philippines. This book presents an examination of the relationship between the professionalisation of nursing and the twentieth-century migration of Filipinos to the United States.
