Appointment of Lady Superintendent, Auckland Hospital

This important appointment was made on 6th June, and Miss Ada Ta>ylor, Matron of Waihi Hospital, was the successful applicant. Miss Taylor was trained at the Christchurch Hospital, where she* was a sister for years, and from there went as sister to the Auckland Hospital. She was afterwards Assistant-Matron at Auckland Hospital, and for some time acting matron until the arrival of Miss Orr. Miss Taylor

then went as matron to the Waihi Hospital where she has been for four years, with a short period of leave granted by the Board for war service. She was a member of the staff of the Hospital Ship " Maheno " on the third commission, and afterwards returned to her hospital duties. Her appointment has given great satisfaction to the staff of the Auckland Hospital to many of whom she was known while there before.
