Her ideals of training, what she hoped training might accomplish, are embodied, in part at least, in the following quotations from her writings at a later period. What is training? Training is to teach the nurse to help the patient to live. Nursing the sick is an art and an art requiring an organized practical and scientific training; for nursing is the skilled servant of medicine, surgery and hygiene. A good nurse of twenty years ago had not to do the twentieth part of what she is required by her physician or surgeon to do now; and so after the year’s training she must be still training under instruction in her first and even second year’s hospital service. The physician prescribes for supplying the vital force, but the nurse supplies it. Training is to teach the nurse how God makes health and how He makes disease. Training is to teach a nurse to know her business, that is to observe exactly in such stupendous issues as life and death, health and disease. Training has to make her not servile, but loyal to medical orders and without the independent sense or energy of responsibility which alone secures real trustworthiness. Training is to teach the nurse how to handle the agencies within our control which restore health and life, in strict intelligent obedience to the physician’s or surgeon’s power and knowledge, how to keep the health mechanism prescribed to her in gear.
