Nursing Offers Big
Opportunity, High
School Girls Told
Professional careers for girls are
more easily available today than
ever before, Miss Olive Slocum and
Miss Esther McMullen of the School
of Nursing of the University of Ore
gon Medical School told the girls of
Central Point high school last Mon
day.
To the young woman who res
ponds to the challenge of a profes
sional career, nursing offers an
opportunity duplicated in no other
field. It enables her to take an
active part in bringing new health
and renewed confidence to count
less people, Miss Slocum said. She
listed 37 types of positions now
open to girls who are professional
nurses with academic degrees.
Girls who like people get the most
inspiration from careers in nursing
The nurse is recognized as a profes
sional person in her community.
Rate of pay is higher than ever be
fore and working hours and condi
tions are much more attractive than
at any time, Miss Slocum said.
Special emphasis in clinical techni
ques in both general and specialized
fields of nursing are being empha
sized by the School of Nursing of
the University of Oregon Medical
Sc’ ool in Portland.
The list of 37 fields of interest to
professional nurses listed by the
speaker included: hospital nursing,
maternity, childrens, orthopedic,
comunicable disease, private duty or
special nursing, public health nurs
ing, school, psychiatric nursing;
government services such as Army,
Navy, Indian, U.S. Public Health
Service. Veterans Administration;
geriatrics and nurse educator.
