JLet s Face
NOW that this nation. Is ATTACKING the battle casualties' will inevitably
mount. The critical need for nurses in the home, in home-front hospitals . :',
and with the military forces MUST BE MET NOW. We simply cannot fall
the men who will be. wounded, in increasing numbers, on the field of battle. :
: More and more trained nurses must leave their posts at home to servo at the front. !;
, ' Two thousand additional home front nurses will be needed each month for the .
. Army 500 each month for the Navy. This means that nurses who can qualify . , V j ' . -,
must answer this urgent call; it means that nurses aides must volunteer to taka , . - ..
; ' their places; it means that women in the home must recognixe the need of nurses -training
so that the health of Jhe home front will not be impairedl
THE NEED IS URGENT!
Here Are Three Opportunities To Serve.
, O HOME NURSES
One out of three doctors will bo called for war duty before the end of
this year. Trained nurses will be called to military service in increasing
numbers. This means that ONE MEMBER OF EVERY SOUTHERN
OREGON FAMILY should learn the fundamentals of nursing through
HOME NURSING CLASSES to be organized SOON. A million women
have already completed this course many more MUST do so if the
health of the nation is sustained!
O NURSES AIDES
Women are asked to VOLUNTEER NOW for training that will enable
them to serve at NURSES AIDES. The national goal it at least one out
of every 500 retidents and that meant a minimum of ONE HUNDRED
from Jackson County. We must be well prepared to meet emergencies
HERE and every woman who can possibly serve as a NURSES AIDE
should VOLUNTEER NOW!
O ARMY -NAVY NURSES
The Army surgeon general has called for 2,000 army and 500 navy
nurses each month to meet the absolute needs of the armed forces.
. There is no greater avenue of service than this for nurses today. The need
must be filled and we, here in Jackson County, must meet our share
. of this great responsibility. , :
