Once upon a lime children we

•away. The goal was "Out of sight,
.out of mind." This practice is not,
^historically speaking that far past.

tiai whose members are dedicated

jtimal children.

' dents and their guidance coun-
vselors about employment opportu-
; nities in health care. Members of
; the project have designed and dis
tributed a Health Care Career
CODE BLUE resource book which
details the roles, educational pro
grams, average salaries and career
options of the registered nurse,
’licensed practical nurse, physical
therapist, medical technologist and
radiologic technologist. The book
also includes the names of schools
in the state which offer academic
programs in nursing and other
health care areas with pertinent
information on scholarships and
.^financial aid.
■ Hayes said some of the antici
pated shortage has been caused by
the perception of the nursing field
as '^woman’s work" and by the fact
that women discovered that they
could enter other career fields and
earn a higher salary. But the field
of pursing, she said, is upgrading
itself in order to become more
jcampetitive with other professions
and to encourage qualified per
sons to enter and remain in the
health field.
"Nursing had long hours and
low wages and it was very
Idemanding physically. A lot of
Vomen went into something else
•because they realized that now
they can be the physician or the
^dentist or the lawyer,” said Haves.
"Now, they're trying to upgrade
the profession itself. Hospitals are
saying 'Yes, we appreciate what
nurses do.’ Salaries have become
'more competitive. Hours have
• become more flexible and there
also is an increase in the number
, of men in the field, although their
numbers are still small. More
i women are becoming pharmacists
and technicians. More women are
becoming pharmacists and techni
cians. It’s not just a 'female' type
of job anymore."
Each of the local hospitals
has contributed $100,000 to the
project and have made available
the services of some of the mem
bers of their staffs.
: Copies of the CODE BLUE
resource notebook are available at
school libraries and in guidance
counselors’ offices....
