Katie Glen retires
BY JOANNE BUCHANAN
When Kathleen (Katie) Glen of Goderich
retired from Alexandra Marine and
General Hospital in August, it ended a
nursing career spanning 42 years off and
on.
Mrs. Glen, who was born at Port Albert
and graduated from Goderich Collegiate,
entered nurses' training at AM&G in 1936.
She graduated in -1939, making her the last
graduate ,actually trained at AM&G to
retire from AM&G.
Over the years, Mrs. Glen has worked as
both a part-time nurse and a private duty
nurse, taking afew years off to raise three
children and a step -daughter: For the last
12 years she has worked at AM&G as a full-
time night shift nurse. 0
Mrs. Glen says she has seen a lot of
changes in nursing over the years. One
change, for the better she feels, is shorter
shifts. On a five month stint as a private
nurse once, she can remember working 20
hour shifts. She has also worked many 12
hour shifts in her day.
Mrs. Glen says she has, always enjoyed
looking after people and she admits that
she will miss her association with the
hospital and her fellow nurses. But, she
says she has a full life and will spend her
retirement travelling, bowling, playing
cards and visiting friends.
Last Thursday, Mrs. Glen was presented
with a hurricane lamp and box as a gift
from the hospital board. On Wednesday
evening, a meal was held for her at the
White Carnation and she was presented
with a watch on behalf of the whole AM&G
staff as well as outside graduates. A
special cake depicting a hospital bed and
nurse was made by RNA Jean McGuire for
the occasion.
In August, a party was held for Mrs.
Glen by ' the night shift nurses who
presented her with a piece of luggage and
a cake. The afternoon shift nurses also
treated her to a meal at the Candlelight.
