TRAINED NURSES
GENERAL SHORTAGE
(By Telegraph—Press Association.)
HAMILTON, This Day.
The shortage of trained nurses was referred, to by Miss D. Menzies, lady superintendent- of the Walkato Hospital, in her annual report to the board today. Miss Menzies stated that during the year 78 nurses had begun training. All out-statibris had been visited, and work was found to be going on ; satisfactorily except at Rotorua, where it' was very difficult to keep things as they should be owing to frequent changes of staff. The problem of staffing small hospitals had been^a great one due, Miss Menzies thought, to a .shortage of general trained nurses throughout New Zealand.
