Theorizing about nurses' work lives: the personal and professional aftermath of living with healthcare 'reform'.

In this paper we discuss the impact of healthcare 'reform' on nurses' personal and professional lives. Using a thematic analysis, we interviewed 38 nurses in Nova Scotia, Canada regarding their experiences of job displacement, inability to find full-time employment and job losses. Their stories reflect how they lived day by day and the effects this had on their children, partners, friends and leisure, as well as their financial burdens. We theorize about the relationship between nurses' work and women's work, and particularly about women working in unstable conditions and the impact on their lives and that of the clients with whom they work.
