Abstract

nity needs in illness and health for which some nursing services are required seem simple, indeed. They might run somewhat as follows: Fulltime nursing care at home for people who can afford to have such care and for such illnesses as will require the full-time service of a nurse. Parttime service for some types of illness, especially those where scientific care on a full-time basis is not a requisite to the cure or retardation of disease. Part-time service for that group of people economically not prepared to pay for full-time service and where some other care is available. Nursing supervision in relation to home nursing care given by some member of the family, especially in chronic or in convalescent care. Public health nurses should be needed in relation to the following health service: Prenatal, infant, preschool, school and industrial hygiene, the control and prevention of communicable diseases including tuberculosis and venereal diseases, mental hygiene and nutrition. By common consent we might take these needs as a hypothesis upon which to build the structure of our problems.
