Goldwater, who {s headin, the City's Committee on Hospital an ‘Medical Facilities concerning the training of volunteer nurses’ alds, states: “That a plan for the training of Yolunteer nurses’ aids has already . worked out by tho Red Cross Ing Service, and that a course of instruction for that purpose has tor ma months been given in base 8. “After carefully studying this plan in general arrangement and in detail, the committee finds that it provides @ short, simple and well thought out course of instruction in theory and in practical work which, intelligently given, should enable those who have hed it to give a good deal of useful service in hospital wards, “With certain silght changes in the theory and a moderate increase in the amount of time devoted to cer- fain practical procedures, the course appears to be a suitable one for the ow to Become A Red Cross Nu for which it is intended. ie plan of training for volunteer nurses’ aids js now to be given in rse By Sophie Irene Loeb Copyright, 1917, by the Prem Publishing Co,’ (The New York Evening World), base hospitals under the auspices of the Red Cross Nursing Service and extend to euch other hospitals as may be approved by the Red Cross for the purpose, and that such courses wher- ever given should conform substan- tially to this plan and be carried on under the same auspices, “In view of the fact that hospitals lacking proper educational facilities and unable to offer a proper field for such training are attempting to es- tablish short courses of training, it is of considerable importance that such efforts should, 60 far as possible, be placed under the control of the Red Cross, which forms our Nation's nursing service, In no other way can volunteer nurses’ aids be given the officlal recognition which will make them available for, service wherever they may be most needed. “The plan of training for volunteer nurses’ aids in connection with bas hospital units calle for a ehort course of theory covering fifteen periods of two hours each (thirty hours in all for theory followed by a course of training in practical work in hospital wards, covering twenty-four periods of three hours each, seventy-two hours in all for practice), “Lhe period of practical work will be increased from seventy-two hours to a maximum of 120 hours, This in- crease seems advisable, not in order that the range of work for which nurses’ aids should be prepared may be enlarged, but rather that more time may be given them to acquire some reasonable degree of skill and reliability in the performance of th tasks to which they may be assigned. The plan is well under way. There are four certificates to be signed for the Washington authorities by nurses who wish to joim the actual Red Cross service, First, the applteation for enroll- ment, which includes all the que tions concerning the physical condi- tion and former work of the appll- cant, Second, a certificate of tmmunity, stating th the applicant has been properly vaccinated. Third, physical examination, which includes the usual questions for nurses, Fourth, a certificate of standing from the Bureau of Nursing Service. A number of well known citizens in- cluding prominent doctors have or- ganized the Committee on Hospital and Medical Facilities under the Committee of National Defense, They are prepared to answer all further questions at thelr offices in the Municipal Bullding.
