VISITING NURSES
HAVE BUSY MONTH


Miss N. J. Minor. superintendent OF
the L. v. ". A., makes an Interesting
report OF the work Of the association
for. the month OF November. Accom-
panying the report 10 most COM
mandatory letter from DR.. r. D.
Garcin. in whichshe says:
MY Dear Miss Minor.
The splendid work that your
nurses have done during both the
epidemic and the recrudescence Of
the same, makes me feel that / must
make public acknowledgment OF the
same.
Il simply could not practice with
out their splendid aid. and in these
statements I am Joined by many OF
my brother practitioners"
The report:
When the last report was read we
were just catching. our breath after
the terrible epidemic Of influenza and
now we seem to be In the grasp Of
mother.
Again We are hearing Of whole
families being laid low: no one to do
anything for them: tho same difficulty
In getting caretaker4. but this time
the doctors seem able to get around;
the people are better informed what
to do and consequently there Ii not
10 great mortality as before nor 30
The month Of NoveYnbe however.
was fairly quiet Eight hundred and
sixty-four patients were carried on
the books to whom 1867 visits were
paid. OF these. 32S were discharged
cured; 253 improved or unimproved:
IS died, and for Is there was no
nursing care. Twenty-one were sent
to hospitals.
During the month I tried to ar
range for the nurses to get a few
days OFF. as all were much worn out.
and az the work was not very heavy
they relieved for each other and
seemed much refreshed by the little
change. My assistant, Miss Heard,
lost her only brother with influenza
and had to make the long journey to
Oregon to help his young widow
make plans for the future. We hope
she may return shortly. and In the
mean time we are getting on pretty
well. !.
Thanksgiving brought material
thought of our patients to the amount
Of SIS, which was distributed among
the nurses. and they had great fun
vieing with each other az to who
could get the biggest Thanksgiving
basket We arc now busy ON our
Christmas lists and we will have
many families this year where the
homes have been made desolate by
/ the death OF father or mother in the
terrible epidemic.
The nurses were very apprecia-
, tive of the increase in salary. and
wish you could have all seen the
pleasure with which the blue slips
were received.
Just now the work is tremen-
dousiy heavy. The additional nurse
/ I had to help in this epidemic was
called away by illness in her family
and we can get no one else.
