May Palmer wrote about her nursing in Salonika for the nursing journal Kai Tiaki, published October 1914, p. 173-174. She described the conflict and the very difficult conditions in a \"comparatively small hospital\" (an annex of the second military hospital) where, \"before it could really be made ready to receive the wounded, 950 streamed in, all requiring more or less immediate attention\". The staff amounted to 4 surgeons for operating, 3 assistants for the wards, and the nursing staff was 2 Danish sisters and May Palmer. Other help, May wrote, was from volunteer Red Cross, and school girls and school boys.\n\nJanuary 1912. May was resident in Rome and the engagement to Medical Army Officer, Capitano Dottore Boriani, attached to the War Office in Rome was announced in Kai Tiaki.\n\nJuly 1914.

May Palmer writes of her day duty in a ward of 39 beds for \"Tommies\" who mostly came from fighting in Verdun a train journey of 2 days away from the Marseilles Red Cross hospital.\n\nOctober 1916. p. 201 Kai Tiaki reports that another sister has met May Palmer on staff of the Hospital Ship Asturias\n\nJanuary 1917. p. 7 May Palmer is reported in Kai Tiaki as on leave from the Hospital Ship Asturias\n\nApril 1917. p. 89 Kai Tiaki publishes \"The outrage on the Red Cross Hospital Ship Asturias\" as the ship was torpedoed March 20 1917.
