NURSING DIPLOMAS
— Post-Graduate Course PRESENTATION BY MINISTER . TO A NUMBER OF WINNERS (Per Press Association) WELLINGTON, This Day. The Hon. J. A. Young, Minister of Health, to-day presented diplomas to New Zealand nurses, who have completed their post graduate course. He thanked the Nurses’ Association for assisting in the granting of bursaries. This year, so far, in New Zealand, sixty’nurses had taken the post graduate course, and it was interesting to note- that many of them occupied positions such as mations, sub-matrons, tutor sisters, ward sisters, nurse inspectors and other similar positions. He attributed this to the excellent work done by Miss Moore in conducting the studies, and thanked the Wellington Hospital authorities for the facilities provided for the holding of the class, and the Victoria College Council for its co-operation. Diplomas were handed to Misses Annie R. Edmanson (Auckland Hospital), Lillian M. Hawkes (Whangarei), Jane Bell (Thames), Mavis Chisholm ■(Masterton), Ina C. Healey (Auckland), Mary W. A. Edson (Nelson), Kathleen I. Craig (Wanganui and Timaru) and Helen G. Smallbone (Napier).
