It is expected that the Auckland- Hospital Board will be ,ble, in three or four weeks' time, to give effeci to its decision to allow nurses at the general hospital one free day each week, states an Auckland paper. - This could not be done until there was accommodation available for the extra thirty nurses necessary, as an increase to the nursing staff to 'permit of the new' regulation being brought into effect. Alterations and enlargements to the nurses' cottage have been in progress for some months past. An extra .storey has been added, and ten /nurses are already installed there. When' completed there will be accommodation for about twenty-four more nurses, who will be engaged as probationers. | Applications foi appointment have increased since the board decided to grant the free dny each week, and for some time past there has been a fairly long waiting list.
