§ 2. Colonel YATEasked the Under-secretary of State for War whether, with a view to enabling nurses in military hospitals abroad to devote themselves entirely to the work for which they have been specially trained, arrangements can be made to free such nurses from non-nursing duties by the substitution of voluntary helpers to undertake the unskilled work that has now to be done by trained nurses?
§ Mr. MACPHERSONThis question is already under consideration, and has been referred to the authorities in France. The only nurses not employed on strictly nursing duties are the Home Sisters, and they frequently have to nurse sick sisters.
