Nevertheless the person in charge never seems to look the impossibility in the face.
Let your doubt be to yourself, your decision to them.
It is as impossible in a book to teach a person in charge of sick how to manage, as it is to teach her how to nurse.
Apprehension, uncertainty, waiting, expectation, fear of surprise, do a patient more harm than any exertion.
It is neither to do everything yourself nor to appoint a number of people to each duty, but to ensure that each does that duty to which he is appointed.
For us who Nurse, our Nursing is a thing, which, unless in it we are making progress every year, every month, every week, take my word for it we are going back.
The more experience we gain, the more progress we can make.
Let us try this--every woman to work as though success depended on herself.
