Graduate and Undergraduate Nurses, Notice!

By G. T. Harding, Jr., M. D.

BECAUSE comparatively few of the many nurses who have applied for work in connection with the Washington Branch Sanitarium during the past two years, are now able to answer a call for their services at this time, owing to changes in their plans, we desire to notify the readers of the REVIEW that the sanitarium would now be pleased to hear from applicants with the proper qualifications, who are so situated as to enable them to answer a call on short notice.

Graduate nurses, with experience in treatment work and bedside nursing, will be needed to answer calls for nurses received from outside patrons of the institution and from city physicians, and to assist with the nursing work in the sanitarium.

Undergraduate nurses, with one year or more of training in a regular training-school for nurses and with proper credentials and recommendations, may enter the work with advanced standing. Frequently calls are received for the services of undergraduate nurses, and in sending out those who are far along in their training and thorough in their sanitarium work, we enable such pupil nurses to broaden their experience.

Those who contemplate taking the nurses' course should communicate with the Washington Training College at once. Those, properly qualified, who take the course beginning in January at the Training College will be permitted to enter upon their practical work in the sanitarium next summer.

A few young men and women, who are in every way qualified for the nurses' course, but who are not financially able to enter the course in connection with the Training College, may at once find work, with pay, in the domestic department of the sanitarium. This experience will be of great value to many prospective pupil nurses; and if satisfactory service is given, these individuals may enter in June upon the regular nurses' course.

We invite correspondence with any who are interested in this work and the opportunities connected with it.

G. T. Harding, Jr., M. D.,

Superintendent.
