Notes on nursing : what it is, and what it is not

Book cover
"The following notes are by no means intended as a rule of thought by which nurses can teach themselves to nurse, still less as a manual to teach nurses to nurse. They are meant simply to give hints for thought to women who have personal charge of the health of others. ... Every day sanitary knowledge, or the knowledge of nursing, or in other words, of how to put the constitution in such a state as that it will have no disease, or that it can recover from disease, takes a higher place. It is recognized as the knowledge one ought to have--distinct from medical knowledge, which only a profession can have."--Preface Publisher's catalog on [4] p. at end Ventilation and warming -- Health of houses -- Petty management -- Noise -- Variety -- Taking food -- What food? -- Bed and bedding -- Light -- Cleanliness of rooms and walls -- Personal cleanliness -- Chattering hopes and advices -- Observation of the sick -- Conclusion -- Appendix Elmer Belt Florence Nightingale collection Publisher's catalog on [4] p. at end.
