Overview

Shuttered Curiosities and Medical Prisoners: A Career in Long-Term Care is the fictionalized memoir of long-term health care worker April Huber. While not based on actual characters or situations, the story she spins mirrors what happens in nursing homes everywhere. A late bloomer, Sister Cody-so named by her former professor who ends up in her care-embarks on her career after graduating from college at forty-four. After nine years of witnessing the nightmare reality of the industry, she decides that to make a difference, she must become an administrator. Her earnest and naive approach to her career leaves her unprepared for what she experiences and, ultimately, leads to her wrongful arrest. Through disappointment, shock, heartbreak, and her eventual awakening, she maintains her love and respect for the elders for whom she cares and never loses sight of why she embarked on the journey in the first place.
