Miss Bruton Is Speaker
At District Meeting
Miss Ellen Bruton, retiring sup
erintendent of nurses at Moore
\ County hospital, was the speaker
at a District Nurses Association
meeting held at the Nurses Home
of the Hamlet hospital Wednesday
evening. Her topic was “The
Nurse’s Place in the Community.”
Miss Bruton stressed the need
for a nurse to be an aU-round per-
. son, keeping in close touch with
all aspects of community life. She
can serve as a link between com
munity and hospital, and can also
be of great influence in furthering
health work in all sections. Miss
Bruton said. Through her con
tact with the public, health nurses,
closer touch may be kept by the
hospital nurse with patients who
need after care following their re
lease from the hospital. This
should result, said the speaker, in
more foUow-up work of hospital
cases and better heailth for the
community.
