PRIVATE DUTY Private duty was one of the firstvdivisions of nursing, and was first organ- ized in 1946. Today it is the largest section in the state and is the best organ- ized section of any in the profession. Rules and regulations for private duty nurses are written in Harrisburg. The private duty nurse spends eight hours with one patient. Some are acutely ill and demand more time than the general duty nurse can spare for one patient. Two of the responsibilities of a private duty nurse are: I. Comfort the patient mentally and physically. 2. Consider the patient's family in cases of serious illness and death, and comfort them to the best of her ability. The private duty section congratulates the Class of 1954. Good luck to each one, and may you go far in your profession. PRIVATE DUTY REGISTRY Vivian Boyer, R. N. .,... . Jane Busch, R. N. ...,, . Belva Carey, R. N. Faye Hummel, R. N. Myra Kephart, R. N.
