TRAINING OF MIDWIVES
MATAMATA HOSPITAL DISPUTE. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Hamilton, Sept. 11. Criticism at the action of the Nurses’ and Midwives’ Representation Board in cancelling the approval of the Matamata hospital as a training school for maternity nurses was voiced at a meeting of the Waikato Hospital Board today. Mr. C. J. W. Barton considered that the board’s privileges were being gradually filched from it. Was the hospital board or the nurses’ union to run the hospital? “All our business,” he said, “is being mapped out by either a Government department or by somebody in Wellington, who is not responsible to the ratepayers as we are.” The chairman maintained that the training facilities at the Waikato hospital were as good as anywhere in New Zealand.
