How to Feed a Sick Person.

itOW " ECCu q oi$A olSOu
Few things are more difficult than to
get a sick person to take nourishing
food, and no task, as a rule, is worse
managed. Amateur nurses may be sue
cessful in other matters, but they gener-
ally make failure of the food PROPOSE
ton.
The nurse is usually to blame when
the patient will not take enough food.
She will bring huge plateful of jelly or
big bowl of beef tea to him, and he
will reject it with disgust, because the
sight of so much food is distasteful. If
she brought a few spoonfuls at time
and served them daintily, he would be
glad to eat.
Give little food at a time, and give it
often. That which is eaten willingly
and with relish is far better than double
the amount swallowed with disgust.
If time is fixed for the patients
meals, always be punctual. If kept
waiting, most sick people lose their de-
sire to eat, and will reject the food when
it is brought to them.
Be careful never to leave food in the
sick room in the hope that the patient
may eat it presently. Miss Florence
Nightingale, the worlds most famous
nurse, says this will simply prevent him
from taking food at all.
Never take large quantity of any
thing at one time, thinking that be-
cause the patient had liked it before he
will like it again. In nine cases out OF
ten sick PERSONS appetite is very ca
PRECIOUS. His food, therefore, should be
varied as much as possible.
Don't rely too much on beef tea. 1t is
useful stimulant, but is not really
nourishing, as most people suppose it to
be.
Be particularly careful to serve every
thing in the daintiest style. Glass
should be bright, silver FURNISHED, nap
kins lily white, and saucers free from
slops. These little details will make all
the difference in the patients appetite.
Always make sure that the patient is
placed in comfortable position to eat
and drink, and be careful that no crumbs
are left in the bed.-McCall's.
