In this article I will describe one of the famous dramatic plays written by Ministry of Health. The information provided in this article includes: summary of the story, information provided about the play, date first performed and printed, the settings, number of words, most important characteristics, and famous quotes/ quotations from the play.Summary of the story
On May 2006, a group of Kuwaiti nurses working in different hospitals and clinics visited Kuwait Nursing Association (KNA) and started telling their stories regarding their temporary posts. These nurses were asked to work as acting head nurses responsible for wards in hospitals and clinics. They have been selected verbally by their nursing superior for these temporary posts before they pass the required course set by the Department of Nursing Services in Ministry of Health. I am not going to discuss the contents of this course or its requirements because this is another dramatic play.
Information provided about the play
Acting head nurses never published any of their play. It did not appear until 2006 when 2 nurses of the 120 acting head nurses visited the president of KNA, that was me, and the general secretary of the new elected board of directors of KNA.
Date first performed
Acting head nurses was first performed in 1980.
Date first printed
Acting head nurses was first printed in 2006.
The settings
The settings are different hospitals and clinics, Ministry of Health.
Number of words
Unlimited number of words never published but found in the mouth of the prisoners of fear.
Most important characters
120 acting head nurses, Nursing Directors, Superintendent of Planning and Training, and KNA.
Famous quotes/ quotations from the play
"They are not qualified nurses". (Superintendent of Planning and Training,
Department of Nursing Services).
"When nurses do not pass the pre-course exam or the interview, they may apply 2
years later". (Superintendent of Planning and Training, Department of Nursing
Services).
"The vast majority of these nurses failed, not less than 3 times, in the pre-course exam or interview. This is an indicator of either these expert nurses are not qualified which we doubt or there is something wrong with exam or the interview". (KNA).
"This play is unfair and unethical. It should be stopped immediately". (KNA).
I think your play missed the conclusion (solutions)which is the aim of any play or proper discussion.
