Times Have Changed A job description for a floor nurse 100 years ago, provided courtesy of Geigy Pharmaceuticals, shows that the nursing profession has come a long way. In addition to caring for 50 patients, each floor nurse was required to fol low these regulations: 1. Daily sweep and mop the floors of your ward, dust the patient’s furniture and window sills. 2. Maintain an even temperature in your ward by bringing in a scuttle of coal for the day’s business. 3. Light is important to observe the patient’s condition. Therefore, each day fill kerosene lamps, clean chimneys and trim wicks. Wash the windows once a week. 4. The nurse’s notes are important in aiding the physician’s work. Make your pens carefully, you may whittle nibs to your individual taste. 5. Each nurse on day duty will report every day at 7 a.m. and leave at 8 p.m., except on the Sabbath on which day you will be off from 12 noon to 2 p.m. 6. Graduate nurses in good standi ng with the di rector of nurses will be given an evening off each week if you go regularly to church. 7. Each nurse should lay aside from each pay day a goodly sum of her earnings for her benefits during her declining years, so that she will not become a burden. For example, if you earn $40 a month you should set aside $15. 8. Any nurse who smokes, uses liquor in any form, gets her hair done in a beauty shop, or frequents dance balls will give the director of nurses good reason to suspect her worth, intentions and integrity. 9. The nurse who performs her labors, serves her patients and doctors faithfully and without fault for a period of 5 years will be given an increase by the hospital administration of 5 cents a day providing there are no hospital debts that are outstanding.
