Removing and Euryins the Dead Was
Part of Their Duties.
In their "History Of Nursing the au-
thors, Miss Nutting and Miss Dock.
quote from an article written in 1764
which gives an insight into what was
required of the trained nurse in the
eighteenth century. The article says:
This occupation is as important for
humanity as its functions are low and
repugnant. All persons are not adapt
ed to it, and the heads Of hospitals
ought to be difficult to please, for the
lives of patients may depend upon their
choice of applicants. The nurse should
be patient, mild, compassionate. She
should console the sick. foresee their
needs and relieve their tedium.
The domestic duties Of the nurse are
to light the fires in the wards and keep
them going, to carry and distribute
nourishment, to accompany the sur
geons and doctors on their rounds and
afterward to remove all dressings, ETC.;
to sweep the halls and wards and keep
the persons Of the patients and their
surroundings clean, to empty all vessels
and change the patients linen, to pre-
vent noise and quarreling and disturb
ances, to notify the steward Of every
thing they see which is wrong, to carry
out the dead and bury them, to light
the lamps in the evening and visit the
sick during the night and to watch
them continually, giving them every
aid which their state requires and
treating them with kindness and con-
slider. ton"
