Abstract


On Sisters

The introduction of Sisters into the New Hospital will indeed be a blessing . . . No longer will a nurse who has taken offence at some trifle be able to set the whole ward against the house surgeon—there will now be a counteragent to prevent this.

Let us hope that these ladies will undergo a special education before entering on their duties, otherwise they cannot take up that position of nurse and lady combined which it is intended they should.

James Forrester 'The New Royal Infirmary’ 19th Jan. 1872.
