STUDENT NURSE What is a student nurse?'Z? Between the innocency of an entrance exam, and the dignity of an R.N., there comes a delightful creature called the student nurse--S.N. They come in assorted sizes, weights, and shapes, buy they have the same creed: to enjoy every second of every hour of every day off duty and on, and to protect themselves with griping, Qtheir only weapon j, when their forty hours are over and the supervisors are in the coffee shop . Student nurses are found ever ,j -underneath, or jumping through, swimming from and running, 1Z'HFA1f'Q51 e in their way. Patients love them, R.N.'s boss them, 0, 5 1 lies ignore them, doctors tolerate them, ' '-I7-V f . and nothing protects the Q51 ,- f A student nurse is truth El' on her uniform, beauty with gloves on her hands, wisdom with p illin in her hair, and the future with scissors in her apron. ' ' To the doctor, a student nurse is an inconsiderate, questioning in- truding jungle of noise, and when you wantzher to make an impres- sion, she becomes a sadistic-,giggling creature, 'ent on wasting as much time as possible, and sleepingjthghough cl sses. A student nurse is a composite, has t1l1e'appEgge:fbf a horse, the di- gestion of an ulcer patient, the energyoffi sdip suds enema, the lungs of a switchboard operator, the imagination of a scalpel, the audacity of a nurse aide, and when she gives pills she has five 'thumbs on each hand. She likes . . . food, few potatoes, vacations, Christmas, money from home, love stories, water in its natural habitat, working elevators, doctors, off duty, and fire alarms. She's not much for books without pictures, laundry bags, hairnets, study hours, metric sustem, rice, and the diet kitchen. Nobody gets so much out of doctors and medical conferences. No one can cram into one day . . . five enemas, twelve complete baths, five classes, three trips to the morgue, four trips to the pharmacy, set up a com- plete uniform, polish shoes, stay out till 12:30 and still get along with her roommate. A student nurse is a magical creature. You can campus her but you can't keep her out of trouble. So you might as well give up. 'She is your maid, porter, aidQ1d your classmate. 4 She is freckle-faced, pint-sjgedjgfunQiltwiiigibffindle of noise, but when she gets off work with her aching feet and-tiredlbaclg, uafterawlgng, long dayj shef amps inceisaigm d ren !53igIie.lwiiHT61isr,feffam0us words, Waite me at six.
