Five members of the Red Cross branch
. in this village attended the joint commit

shend. the executive secretary, Miss
Faith L. Yeaw, who had the meeting in
charge. also DR. c. S. Leach, and Miss
Helen NJ. Sanderson, public health nurse
of the southern district Miss Clara f.
Hoffman of Boston, state supervisor of
Red Cross nurses. and Miss Edith Peck
ham, head of the New England junior
Red Cross.
As result of the addresses and discus
sions which were held much clearer I'M
Outstanding is felt BY the local committee
in regard to Red Cross work and
especially of the work of the public
health nurse.
Among the other matters the subject of a
stated fee for the services of the nurse
was discussed when called to visit adults
i'm emergency cases. 1t was considered
that in nearly every case a family would
feel more free to call upon the nurse and
more independent should small fee be
charged. with the understanding that the
fee or any fees paid the nurse goes
directly into the treasury of the local Red
Cross branch for use in local work and to
secure supplies for the nurses use. The
school children Of the district are directly
under the nurses care and no charge
would be made for Der visits to them. In
epidemies of sickness of any nature it
would be the duty of the Red Cross nurse
to care for the public health of the towns.
Naturally. with 10 towns under her
care. Miss Hoffman can undertake no
continued bedside nursing but can, as
has been mentioned. be called upon in
emergency cases and always will be ready
To give nursing advice.
These facts are mentioned because
many have not clearly understood that
Miss Hoffman is not here as a district
nurse as the term is used in cities. but a
uublic health nurse. and that the duties
must necessarily be different.
