NURSING DEPARTMENT The Nursing Department is among the most im- portant groups of teachers that the student nurse knows well. It is through this Department, under the electric as well as exacting supervision of Miss Sylvia Perkins, that the basic principles of nursing care are taught. Ably assisting Miss Perkins are Miss Gilmore, Miss Grosser, Miss Bacon and the changing student assistants. This Department, sometimes to its despair, pulls, pushes and exhorts each student through her first bewildering six months, training. First row: Miss H. Gilmore, Miss S. Perkins, Miss I. Grosser. Back row: Miss C. Beauregard, Miss M. Bacon. MISS VOIGT The weekly change slip . . . how often we have looked for- ward to that magic piece of paper which routes us through our varied ward experience, and how seldom we have stopped to con- sider the amount of planning and foresight which it represents. The change slip is issued from the small office in T.S.O. where Miss Helen Voigt, co-ordinator supreme, carries the tremendous task of directing each of us through our required experience in exactly three years; and at the same time sees that each ward is covered at all times. In a large, flat book she works out the master plan for each of our programs, much as the pieces of a puzzle are fitted together. For this task, all-important to the smoothly running surface of any hospital school of nursing. Miss Voigt meets our sincere admiration and appreciation. SCIENCE DEPARTMENT Although the members of the Science Department have changed considerably since the Class of 1946 first started their studies, the standards, continuity and excellent teaching have persisted unbroken. The Sci- ence and Nursing Department work to gether to cor- relate theoretical with practical knowledge. Miss Sher- win now heads the Science Department assisted by Miss Tsarides, Miss Batchelder, Miss D. Johnson, Miss Belcher and Miss Berry. It is through their good teaching that we rise to the standards required of every M.G.H. student. First row: Miss Batchelder, Miss Sherwin, Miss D. Johnson. Back row: Miss Belcher, Miss Tsarides, Miss Berry. Page Ten
