ABSTRACT

For the course in Hospital Economics it would be necessary to have a trained nurse in charge who has had the necessary experience and qualifications. It is supposed that the three to four months’ private duty would enable the candidate to meet nearly all the expense of the college course, in addition to the experience which would be gained at private duty. In regard to Miss Riddle’s paper of “Uniformity in Curriculum,” her suggestions have been embodied so far as possible in the uniform curriculum as outlined in the course. In the course of time the nurses might be able to supply thoroughly trained superintendents to take charge of the small hospitals and training schools, such superintendents to be entitled to hold active membership in the Superintendents’ Society. That the Superitnendents’ Society appoint a Board of Examiners of experienced superintendents, whose duties are to receive the names of all candidates for the teachers’ course, and to endorse them.
