THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG ee ------------ 'TWO NURSES NEEDED | FOR PUBLIC SCHOOLS | Inspector Stuart's Interesting Report Made to the Board | of Education. At a meeting of the Board of Edu-| | cation held on Thursday evening the | tollowing interesting report by In- spector J. Russell Stuart on the ap-| | rointment of 'an assistant nurse for | | the schools was read by Trustee T.| | G. Bishop, chairman of the manage- j ment committee: { '"That the physical condition ! our public school pupils has greatly | {improved through the activities of | the school nurse is obvious to any- {one who has had opportunities of observing conditions before and since the nurse was appointed, but | one nurse is clearly unequal to the requirements of the situation. Dur-| ing the past eight months she has | examined 2,493 pupils. At this rate she will meet each pupil, on an aver- age, only once annually. Eight | hundred and seven cases of physical | defect were discovered, sufficiently! | serious to be reported to the par-| ents. Many of these defects were of a nature to affect seriously the | health and development of the chil- dren, as well as their progress in| i school. Among the defects reported were 49 cases of defective vision, 72 ot defective nasal breathing, 104 of defective tonsils, In 353 cases the attention of parents was directed to dental defects and there were also 268 cases of contagious disease. "These statistics indicate only part of the fleld which health work | in the schools should cover, but is| sufficient to prove that it is beyond | the powers of one nurse to accom-| plish what ought to be done. To detect and report physical defects {to the parents is sufficient in many | cases to lead to remedial acffon, but there are many cases of great urg-| ency in which, for various reasons, | | nothing is done. One of the most| necessary duties of the nurse is to follow up her recommendations ef-| tectively, To do this there must be | sufficiently frequent re-examination | of the pupils concerned, and time of the parents. Sometimes several | tactful, patient interviews reeded in a single case. Many par-| as persuaded before they will take | action. A Serious Obstacle, "Two hundred and. sixty-eight | cases of contagious disease in eight | months means a serious obstacle to | the general progress of the classes az well as the retardation of the in- dividuals most concerned. In addi- tion to this, there is not only in some cases an aftermath of more or less permanent physical loss to the parents. Miss Shearer testifiés that the experience of other cities shows that the organization of an adequate staff results in a large decrease in| the numbér of cases of contagious disease, chiefly through the closer supervision made possible. "Another valuable part of the | nurse's duties is to enforce lessons | of personal cleanliness; and, as far { ae possible, to protect our children i from loathsome skin diseases such as lice, itch, ringworm, impetigo, etc. One hundred cases of skin dis- ease were dealt with in the past eight months. Unless there is time for frequent visits to a school, per- | mitting an almost unremitting ob- sérvation, it is hopeless to wholly suppress these diseases so far as the school is concerned. "An additional useful service which the nurse could perform, if not overburdened with other work; is the promotion of the hygienic edu- cation of both parents and pupils. Not only, as has been suggested, should there be time for much more home visiting, but the nurse should frequently address the parents, par- ticularly the mothers, at the meet- ings of the Home and School Clubs and other school gatherings attended There could even, with advantage, be special meetings of parents to be addressed by the nurse and others on , matters of child bealth. A sympathetic appreciation on the part of parents of the aims and work of the school nurse is a! powerful factor in its success, In| some cities the Home and School | Clubs have visiting committees who | co-operate with the nurse and, I am | told, achieve good results, | "In schools where the number of | nurses permits, the instruction in! hygiene, in the junior lasses, is! partly undertaken by the nurse, | whose practical treatment and the! authority due to her office serve to make such teaching very impressive. Several Advantages. "The appointment of an addition- al nurse would entitle us to formal recognition from the department and this would secure several ad- | vantages. The special grants for which we would qualify would pay for a complete equipment for keep- ing satisfactory records, and for other supplies. The department of- fers to send a nurse from the pro- vincial staff, who would spend sev- eral weeks to assist in the ofganiza- tion of the work. The department | quently for that purpose. | other as an assistant. are| Drug Store is open all day Sunday. by the schedule for the salaries of women teachers. Miss Lovick's sal- ary is $1,250, which is the maximum according to this schedule. "As to the assignment of duties, | would recommend that the schools | be divided, forming two districts: Princess Street would effect this very equally. Each nurse should have | ber own district as there are gdvan- | tages arising from the more intimate | acquaintance which follows. They | ht, however, after a time change | ricts.
