region ed in Barrie during 1952 bringing the number in service to 5628 and leaving 19 unfilled orders at the yearend The report notes that there is still heavy demand for service that must be met as quickly as possible Large construction projects must still be planned and carried out without delay Large amounts of new capital must still be obtained Yet the results of the past year in For those who are able to pay lthere is this nominal charge but for those in less comfortable cir cumstances the fee is adjusted or in cases of extreme poverty com plelely waived Probably the Victorian Order nurse would not be happy if her work entailedjust straight forward treatment of average ail ments She seems to prefer to work in conditions far removed from the sterile whiteness and clockwork routine of hospital Despite frequent opportunities to return to appointments that would be much more profitable nancial ly and involve lesspersonal wear andtear the VON nurse turns them down and stays with the job ahjob that certainly has its problems but in which she is close to those whose lives she works to save In turn she has the love and respect of the thousands who recognize that blue uniform and little black bag Sound Policies While it is easy to wax sentim ental over the Victorian Orders great work for humanity its serlt vices are governed by sound downtoearth policies based on years of practical experience Since the skills of highly qualied VON nurse can be divided among several patients the services of out albinoscarce graduate nurses can be spread over wider eld with advantage to
