I f THE PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE > ;4 ' ■ The friucipal agencies la combating tuberculosis and tfca of the tuberculosis patient are the visiting nurse, the dispensary end the sanatorium. _No one of these standing alone is capable at ac complishing much without the aid of the other two. This is a faot which is not sufficiently appreciated and will account tor the tallare to secure better results. These three agencies have grown up inde pendently ot each other and the enthusiasts in each Held have assumed the solution ot the whole problem. This has led to misdirected energy and disheartening resulU. Those with a broader outlook see that each plan has a value not possessed by the others, and that by properly co-ordinating these several agencies we oan develop a sjm metrical scheme which will not only care for the tuberculous patient but go tar toward the solution ot the whole tuberculosis problem. The public health nurse is the key to the whole situation. She is the vanguard in the light against tuberculosis. It is the Information derived from the earliei work of the public health nurses' associa lions that laid the foundation for all tha activities which have followed Tuberculosis is live vice—lt lurks In secret places and unless It Is tcrreted out neither its victims nor the conditions wfcich develop the lsease are known. She is a detective to locating tuberculosis in • allds; the most valuable agent we have In roundup of suspects for Din ml nation and following up the patient after leaving the sanatorium, -a short, the value of bar work does not consist so much in what she actually accomplishes by her own unaided efforts (although meat effectual) as In unearthing conditions which must be met by other agencies whose function it is to meet these conditions. In her capacity as nurse she cannot do much for the individual sufferer except give him instruction In the use of such facilities as may be at her command in the home. Her chief assistance, however, to the patient wtd be In putting him tn touch with other relief agencies To the family she can be of great assistance by instructing them in precautionary measures to prevent the spresd of the contagion tc others and bringing suspects and contacts to the This Is her most important function, and It is only through the activity and influence of the visiting nurse that we shall ever be able to aeoure a diagnosis in a majority of cases in time to cure the patient The reason why our sanatoria are all filled with advanced cases many of whom are incurable, is because under present conditions we wait for patients to develop active symptoms before the disease is recognized These conditions will pot be improved until there ie •ome systematic method of securing an early dtagnoe^ The visiting nurse is the most logical and effective ageot to discover these patients, thus making the work of the dispenaary and sanatorium more effective. We now know rhat the early symptoms of tuberculosis are so Insidious and apparently trivial, that they escafw even the most intelligent patients and physicians until their attention Is directed to them She cannet stamp out tuberculosis by her efforts but she can do an enormously Important work toward this end by enlightening the public In regard to couditionß about wftich they know but little, and probably never will except by her efforts The National Tuberculosis Association was larfcely instrumental in establishing public hc-alth nursing tn the United States. The North Carolina Tuberculosis Association established public health nursing la North Caroline The Tubercolosls Christmas Seal did it all. Subscribe to the Enterprise now.
