REPORT OF SCHOOL OF NURSING, 1928
During the year 1928 there have been few outstanding changes in the School. On January first there were forty-two accepted students enrolled and fifteen preliminary students. This num- ber was increased by the incoming classes of February and Sep- tember when thirteen and twenty-two students, respectively, en- tered. Nine students completed their courses, four resigned on account of ill health, while eleven were dropped for other rea- sons; so that at the end of the year the census was sixty-seven.
29 Seniors 14 Intermediates
6 Juniors
18 Preliminary students
Miss Edna Elliot, night supervisor, resigned on account of ill health and was replaced by Miss Emily McQueenie, who in turn was succeeded by Miss Agnes Johnson of the 1922 Class. Miss Constance Larkin of the Class of 1928 is now Assistant Night Supervisor, Miss Lillian D. Pratt of the Class of 1928 is in charge of the Pediatric Floor. The other members of the Class are now engaged in private duty nursing.
The Graduation Exercises were held as usual in June. Mr. Price, presided, introducing Dr. Fred E. Clow, the speaker; Mrs. Hayward who presented the pins to the Graduates; Dr. Hunting who presented the diplomas, and his Honor, Mayor McGrath who gave a short address.
The curriculum of the School has been modified slightly. An affiliation has been arranged whereby the students will receive their instruction in the nursing of Medical and Communicable Diseases at the Boston City Hospital, instead of at the Yale Uni- versity School of Nursing. Three months of the time is devoted to the study of Communicable Diseases and two to Medical. Dr. Robert Cook now gives the course in Pediatric Diseases. A course in psychology has been introduced, the lectures being given by Dr. George Dalton. One senior nurse was enabled to take the course in Public Health Nursing at Simmons College through the support of the Quincy Women's Club.
Another important change which occured during the year was the acquisition of the Rice Home for the housing of students again. In September with twenty-two new probationers admitted the New Home was not large enough to accommodate them all, so the Rice Home was refurnished for them.
In December the Class of 1930, aided by the other members of the School, gave a Bazaar and Bridge, at which $375 was raised. The proceeds will be used for the Class gift to the School and for class expenses. They are very grateful to all the friends

who so generously supported them both by donations and pur- chases.
In the Spring the members of the Quincy and Wollaston Hos- pital Aid Associations began the delightful practice of serving Tea one afternoon a month in the Recreation Room. These Teas have been enjoyed by both the students and graduate nurses.
As in past years the School has received numerous gifts from members of the Staff and friends which have served to remind them of the continued interest and friendship felt.
May I take this opportunity to thank the members of the Staff who have co-operated so willingly in teaching the nurses and in attending to those who have been ill.
Respectfully submitted,
EILEEN M. YOUNG, R.N., Superintendent of Nurses,
REPORT OF MEDICAL STAFF OF HOSPITAL FOR THE YEAR 1928
With the rapid growth of the city, the amount of work performed at the Quincy Hospital by the Staff has correspondingly increased so that the facilities at times have been taxed to the utmost. More- over, the amount of time given by each member of the Staff to the free treatment of hospital cases has increased so rapidly that it now calls for considerable personal sacrifice on the part of the members, in order that the work may be done efficiently.
To relieve this burden there is under consideration a plan for the reorganization of the Staff, in order that the work may be dis- tributed among a larger number. Only such plans will be consid- ered as will insure the maintenance of the efficient treatment given to the patients in the past.
Conforming to the requirements of the American College of Surgeons, the Staff has met once a month, and at these meetings matters pertaining to the hospital have been discussed and recom- mendations made to the Board of Managers. These recommen- dations always receive sympathetic consideration from the Board. and where possible have been acted upon favorably. At the Staff meetings medical and surgical cases are also discussed with a view of bringing out information that will be of help in the future treatment of other patients.
During the year 1928 the Physiotherapy department was or- ganized, under the direction of Dr. Edmund Burke. A large number of patients have been treated in this department, and the efficiency of the hospital has thereby been increased.
Through the courtesy of the Board of Managers and the Super- intendent, the joint meeting of the Norfolk South District Medi- cal Society and the Staff was held at the hospital in February. Many interesting cases were discussed, and Dr. Roger Graves of Boston presented a paper on Hematuria. These meetings, which become a yearly custom, are of vast importance to the hospital, in that they enable the members of the Staff to keep up to date with recent advances in medical science.
The Staff has called the attention of the management to the over-crowded conditions existing in the hospital, particularly with reference to the Operating Room, Ward A, and Ward C.
188
CITY OF QUINCY
The conditions in these places are becoming so bad that before long the proper treatment of patients will be seriously interfered with. The Mayor and the Board of Managers have been quick to realize the seriousness of the matter, and have taken active steps to provide more accommodations. A number of joint meetings have been held with the Board of Managers, at which the Mayor was present, and definite steps have now been taken to remedy the evil by further construction.
The Staff wishes to express its appreciation for the hearty co- operation it has received at the hands of the Mayor, the Board of Managers, and the Superintendent.
WILLIAM R. HURLEY, M.D.,
President of the Staff.
REPORT OF X-RAY DEPARTMENT, QUINCY CITY HOSPITAL
To the Superintendent and Board of Managers, Quincy City Hos- pital, Quincy, Massachusetts :
Enclosed please find my report relative to the work done by the X-ray Department during the year 1928.
The personel of the department changed with the resignation of Miss Ethel Fostello, and the appointment of Miss Ceciline Nash in her place.
Miss Agnes M. Fraser, as chief technician for the laboratory, assisted by Miss Nash, has carried on the work during the year in a very satisfactory manner.
The number of cases admitted to the department for X-ray diag- nosis and treatment has increased very materially during the past year, the actual figures being three hundred and ninety-five.
This amount of work makes our present space inadequate. Hence it is gratifying to know that plans are under way for the building of a new laboratory, with space and equipment provided that will take care of the normal growth of the hospital for many years to come. I am hoping that this building will be completed in the very near future in order that we may start work on even a larger scale.
The new plans call for an extra treatment room, and a cysto- scopic room, equipped with the latest apparatus for this type of work. With these two additions, the X-ray Department of the hos- pital will compare favorably with any other in New England.
During the year, twenty-seven hundred and eighty patients were admitted to the laboratory for either X-ray diagnosis or treatment. This total, compared with twenty-three hundred and ninety-five in the year 1927, shows a healthy increase in the work of the labora- tory.
I wish to express my sincere appreciation to the Administration and Staff for their hearty co-operation during the past year.
Respectfully submitted,
CHARLES WHELAN, M.D., Roentgenologist.

REPORT OF THE QUINCY HOSPITAL AID ASSOCIATION
The Hospital Aid Association has held its monthly meetings with a fair attendance and with the aid of home workers we have finished 1065 pieces.
We are glad to report a successful food sale held in May, netting $227.
Our Christmas cheer was carried on as in past years, with a use- ful gift for each ward patient.
A "Tea" is held alternate months with the Wollaston Committee for the nurses.
Magazines are sent the nurses regularly and their pins given them when graduating. One nurse is sent to Simmons College for three months as part of her last years work.
We are grateful to our faithful friends and look forward to an- other year of increased interest in the hospital work.
Respectfully submitted,
MARTHA N. WOODRUFF,
President.
REPORT OF THE WOLLASTON BRANCH HOSPITAL AID ASSOCIATION
The work of the Wollaston Branch Hospital Aid Association is almost the same year after year. This year the attendance at meet- ings has been somewhat larger, more workers staying all day. We have done no special work. We have enjoyed being with the nurses at two afternoon teas in the new Nurses' Home.
