900 public health nurses, and 1900
institutional nurses. The reason for
the large preponderance of private
duty nurses is that there are no
bars to this type of nursing. Anyone
who wants to call herself a nurse
can enter the private duty field in
competition with all others in it, al
though in Connecticut, to become a
registered nurse, there are certain
formalitles that must be complied
| with, namely, the person must be
over Il years of age, of good moral
character. and must show to the sat
| lsfactlon of a, board of five members,
appointed by the governor. that she
IS graduate of an approved training
school for nurses, which gives at
least two years course in a public
| or private hospital. where medical,
surgical and obstetrical cases are re-
ceired and treated. II such appli-
cant shall pass the examination to
the satisfaction of the board. she
then receives certificate of regis
tration, which entities her to be
known as a Registered nurse The
graduate of training school who
enters private duty nursing has been
under supervision for at least two
years. and all at once this supervi-
sion is removed and she becomes a
free agent, to refuse call or accept
them, as she sees fit. She can dis
criminate against certain types of
cases and she is very apt TO stop
learning at the point where other
professional women are just be-
ginning to learn.
within few months she can at
tam her maximum earning capacity
and she has no future to look for
ward to. For the first few years she
is full OF enthusiasm and may have
fine time. But the danger is that
she will grow careless as to her
technique, she will not read the
nursing magazines, and she will be
found less and less at the meetings
OF her professional groups Under
the soundest conditions she leads a
most irregular life, with heavy de-
mands made upon her health. When
large group of nurses were asked
whether they intended to stay in the
profession of nursing. So to go per
cent of the public health and insti-
tutional nurses said yes, but only So
per cent of the private duty nurses
responded in the affirmative. 1t
sc ems clear that som ethinr is uron,
with system which 10 Masatisfac-
tory to all concerned. and probably
more unsatisfactory to the private
duty nurse herself than 10 anyone
else.
one of the draw backs II pri-
vate duty nursing is that tt.e-a is
such large number of them that
this field must absorb all nurses
who cannot secure either public
health or institutional positions An
other drawback is that the field IS
open 10 all corners. and the good
nurses must compete with women
far below them in intelligence and
nursing knowledge and skill. Still
a third drawback is that the free
lance worker pays for her indapen-
derce through lowering income. ir-
regular employment, and profess
sional lineliness Such a condition is
bound to exist until some organized

system can be devised by which the
private duty nurse can be utilized to
her best advantage.
We have seen that out of no.
600 nurses, only about $4,000 were
in public health and institutional
service. l assume that these two
branches select women who are best
qualified for the work. Candidates
for these positions are scrutinized
by organizations and institutions in
most thorough manner. and it is
safe to assume that only the most
proficient are selected.
Public, Health Nursing
Public health nursing is a serv-
ice which every community owes to
its children. It's motive. as first in
PRODUCED by William Rathbone, of
Liverpool, England, with the help
of Florence Nightingale in the year
1889, was the provision for the sick
poor of a type of care which they
could not obtain without the aid of
others. Now, however, it has broad
ened out far beyond the limits Of the
care of the poor. The district nurse
has been transformed into the public
health nurse through the recognition
of the fact that the public health
movement is education in personal
hygiene and the realization that the
nurse is the best agent to carry on
such education in the home. It has
been said that the relative progress
of civilization of the various peoples
of the earth may be measured by
the extent to which they have de-
reloped this newest and most sisni-
fcant form of community health
service. Authorities state that for
every 1000 in population there
should be at least one public health
nurse and in rural communities
where distance is to be considered.
one to every 1900. and that the
community should spend between so
cents and s1.e0 per capita for pub
lie health nursing, or about one-third
of its total health budget.
1T is unfortunate that today this
work, which is a public service, is
conducted mostly under private
auspices, but l believe that the dav
is not far distant when the state will
recognize its responsibility in this
most important duty to its citizens.
1t seems that the time must come
when the state will pay for this serv-
Ice and when the education of the
nurse will be provided for through
pubic channels. The community
must pay for the education of these
women, whose services are rendered
TO the community. In every other
held. from law and medicine to type
writing, We recognize that education
costs money, and yet the nurse is
the only person in the world who is
expected to pay for her education
with the work of her hands at the
time she is getting it.
The nurse who enters this branch
OF the service should supplement her
fundamental education with q, grad
uate course in the special problems
of public health. She is the mis-
slonary to carry the message of
health into each individual home.
She must have the ability TO detect
the early signs of contagious disease,
to discern symptoms which suggest
tuberculosis, to give counsel as to
