There is to my mind no institution in Prince Ed- “rd Island that is of more import- uw mm this mental hospital." _Ee speaker stressed the fact that the old idea of a stigma attaching to mental disease, was vanishing, ,nd properly so; it had heen°an in-' defensible fallacy. 80|-D8 DMI!

medical profession today. Mental illness, however, has not been given that attention in this Province that it should receive. It should be ern- pbasized that there are good chan- ces of curing mental cases, but what || true of many bodily diseases is true also of mental diseases, in that they must be treated in time. In too muny cases the patients come in when it istoo late to effect a per- manent cure. The chairman cited the splendid

results achieved by preventative means in the medical field, emphas- izing that the same possibilities of

-ess and success applied to the

Q, of mental hygiene. It was essential that this fact be properly and adequately recognized through- cut the Province. The Govemment, ha said, regarded Falconwood Hos- pital asthe most important instit- ution under its control.

. Falconwood _Construction

Owing to financial stress and to a feeling prevalent throughout the Province and in the Government itself, it was considered unwise to attempt to finance more than the rebuilding of one wing of Falcon- wood institution this year. lt is hoped. however, that conditions will shortly improve and that within a few years an institution will be er- ected on' these groimds that will be a credit to the people of this Pro- vince. Such an institution was, in the speaker‘s opinion, absolutely necessary for the health and well- being of the patients. "Until that time comes," he added, “w'e are try-

wc do the best we can, under

_.it difficult conditions." Reference was made by the speak- rr to the recent favourable report of the Grand Jury with regard to Flalconwood. The conditions of over crowding, referred to in the report, were unavoidable under present cir- cumstances, but it is hoped, within s year at the outside, that this con- dition will have been solved to some extent at least. Dr, MacMillan highly commended the services of Dr. McLaughlin as medical superintendent, also the Matz-on, Miss Nicholson, the nursing staff under her, as well as the male attendants and all concerned in the work of the institution. Their ef- ficiency was a matter of great sat- isfaction to the Government, and, he believed, to the people of the Pro- vince generally. The importance of the nursing

training given at Falconwood was also emphasized by the speaker. The graduates had worked hard. had achieved high marks in their exam- motions, and had deservedly won treglipiomas which they were about gvceive. The diplomas were then awarded to the graduates by His Honour Lieutenant Governor Dalton, who was introduced by the chairman as Prince Edward Island's greatest ben- efactor, His Honour having given to the people of this Province a San- iiorium, s. University wing, and a ichool.

If you Sad thc history of nurs-

in, you will find that it ii'°¢-5 almost hand in hand with that of medi- cine. The nursing can of the sick is a vary old practice. Until half a century ago little change had tak- en place in its method. The nurse endeavored, according to her light, to comfort the sick. and alleviate, as beet she could. the suffering of their last day! on earth.

Modern nursing is largely the de- velopment cf the ll-St fifty years This is accounted for by the vast strides that have taken place in the science and practice of nurs- ing during that time. Our whole conception of the care of the sick has changed. The old conception of a hospital, as a place where the poor or way-faring were taken to end their days, has passed. In its place wo recognize the rnodern hos- pital as an institution where pat- ients go to regain their health. It has become an essential part of community life. With the increas- ing use of hospitals has come an equally urgent demand for nurs- ing service, and the whole problem ofthe nurse in her relationship to the hospital, the’ medical pro- fession and the public at large.

HON. G. SHELTON SHARP

Premier- Btewa.rt‘s regret at be-

ing absent was conveyed to the meeting by Hon. G. Shelton Sharp, Minister of Public Works, who had just returned from visiting the Premier at his summer cottage, where he is now recovering from a protracted illness. Mr. Sharp re- ferred also to the difficulties caused by the Faloonwood fire and to the loyal oo-operation of the medical superintendent and staff, through whose efforts it had been pcmible to carry on.

A contract has now been award-

ed for the completion of the hospi- tal wing, and it is hoped that shortly after Christmas the coin- gestion at the Infirmary and the slmims buudlug win be relieved to some extent. The wing, when re- built, will accommodate about eighty patients, in addition to the staff, Mr. Sharp said.

Mr. sharp referred to the con-

struction some time ago of the new refrigerator plant. and ex- pressed satisfaction with the re- sults achieved, which have meant decreased operating costs by elim- ination of food westages. It is hoped with the extra accommoda-I tion now under construction to make conditions very much more comfortable for the patients as well as for the staff.

Mr. Sharp added to the chair-

mau’s remarks his own satisfaction with the work of the medical sup- erintendent, the nurses and atten- dants. In congratulating the grad- uating nurses. he said he felt sure they would never regret the time spent in lwfiuirlnl thle trainin8 they had received, under such com- petent direct'on, in the care of the mentally deficient.

The chairman then warmly 9011-

gratulated Miss Pillman on the excellence of her paper on Mental Hygiene; also the graduates of last year, for whom, unfortunately no graduation exercises could be held at the time owing to lack of ac- commodation. He drew attention also to the timely advice contain- ed in Dr. Seaman's address to the graduates. and strongly lrldvraed Mr. Sharp's reference to the im- provements effected during the past year in the matter of meat and food supply. He also ocfnSl’&tf\l- iated M'ss Garrick on the splen- did supervision glven to the in- firmary,

family doctor, or as the pastor of the wealthy modem congregation differs from the missionary on the remote frontiers of civilization, in a somewhat similar fashion it may bo said that the best typo of pment day nurse differs from the illustrious women immortalized in the early annals of nursing history. All honour and glory to these wo- men w'i'io have left their stamp up- on 'the world, but let us not forget ttiofc who are striving just as val- iantly today to bring the nursing profession to the standard of ef- ficiency at which they aim.

The Requirements

The successful nurse must pos-I sess a reasonable amount of tact' and sanity of judgment in her dealings with patients; possess a reasonable degree of intelligence to enalble her to analyze the factors in a social situation. The nurse is also frequently expected, by the Iaity at least, to possess the wis- doem of the sages. She must be "wise as a serpent and harmless as a dove" in many situations. At certain times she has even been known to be made the smolnc- screen for the blunders of a cer- tain type of :practitioner-. At all times she must become the ostensibly willing depository for all the woes and misery of the sick room. No other profession 'has quite the same hours of labour-day or night duty for twelve or even twenty-four hours seven days a week. until she may become the victim of utter exhaus- tion. Furthermore, she is subject to dismissal by two masters, the phy- sician and the patient. And yet she must be efficient and pleasing under the most trying circumstan- ces. Fortunately, she has loyal friends in the majority of the medical profession, and fortumiolv 'oo tlxc majority of people are rea- sonable minded under' ordinary health conditions; but exceptions to the rule are all too common; Under such circumstances intelli- genoe alone will not safeguard the nurse from the pitfalls of her pro- fession. She also needs an abound- fng sense of humor, as well as a sane humztnitarianism. See must he “tolerant to the extent of even tolerating intolerance" when no vit- al principle is at stake. To attain success in her profession she must possess in a fair degree the main factors that constitute leaderahb.

A brief summary of the stand-

ards of efficiency of the modern nurse, as given by a large number of authorities, may be stated brief- ly as follows-to hasten recovery of the sick; to reduce suffering: relieve dL|tr~ess of mind as well as body, and bo s beacon light of hope and encouragement to the sick; to

ways of living by example and pre- cept; to spread knowledge of pre-

llvered by Dr. Seaman: vention of disease: to be the finest we are here tonlshtto greet an- weapon 01° d°¢l°f has in his arm-

agent the state can have in its fight against disease; self realiza- tion of the nurse in a great field of sarvice; earning a livelihood un- der conditions of good social stand- ing. This eeems to cUver the ground with reasonable thoroughness, and rightly emphasises the increasing importance of public health nurs- llll- _

A Frnitful Field

The problem of the public health

nurse-or better called the public health teacher-is not merely to teach proper health hallii-Lin. mat- ters of diet, recreation, rest, cloth- ing, elimination and similar mat- ters, but rather to instil an attit- ude of mind and sanity of outlook

that will enable the citizens oil Canada to live rationally and nobly

-"to see life steadiy and see it, whole.” In the present age of high|

pressure living, the tendencies and] temptations, enticing~young people, to dissipate their energies in a hee-I tio search for new thrills and sen- sational amusements, are legion. Over-indulgence, whether in intel-‘ lectual, physical or emotional pur-: suits. causes an excessive deplet-

ion of nervous energy and points' the way to nervous and mental ill-| health. Fortunately scientific teach-» lug of public health and the incui- cation in theminds of youth of the simpler principles of health educa- tion, promises to provide an effect- ive antidote for the orgies and oth- I er undesirable influences of the, age.

your nursing education. Up to'ncw you have only learned how to study your protfeenion. Your success or failure in your work still depend 1°-l'8€ly on whether you. continue your studies and steadily increase your knowledge, or are satisfied to remain where you are. The objec- tive to which all nursing roads lead and from which all should radiate, is the patient-that complex mix- ture of hasmonious and contradict- ory t'ra.its, that in their unification constitute the so-called human per- Swality. You are our-ing for this strange. and wonderful creature, rather than a case of measles, or rhellrnlltlsun 01' pneumonia. True, you must master certain nursing techniques and acquire ber-tam skills, conditioned by the shifting emphasis from one more or less Specialized condition of the patient tc~'anothet'-for at different times, or even at the same time, he may have more than one disease, but the fact should not be overlooked that the patient is the core, th: keystone in the arch of the nurs- lD8 process. If you fail to know your patient, to understand his kinks and a/bnormalities-and no inferior woman ls capable of such understanding-your success wrll be Univ nsrtlnl. The tendency in this “Ge of specialization appears to be that of looking through the wrong end of the telescope at the part rather than the entire structure- to limit the field of vision to some specialized condition that g.ves the Obdervcl' Ollly 8. partial, and, there- fore, a faulty perspective of the whole nursing situation.
