Title: Public Health Nursing
Author: A.M. Mary Sewall Gardner, R.N.
Publisher: The Macmillan Company, New York
Published: 1936
Binding: Hardcover
Language: English
Edition: 3rd edition
Number of Pages: 476
Catalogs: Nursing History, Public Health
Description: Ex-library. Original dark blue cloth binding with gilt lettering on spine and front board. Spine is somewhat worn, bears the catalog number in and corners are bumped. Bears the stamps and card pocket of the Mary Fletcher Hospital Training School Library. A few light pencil notations inside. 3rd edition, completely revised. Gardner notes that public health nursing had changed so much during the two decades since the book's original publication in 1916 that the book needed a complete revision with each decade. This edition features seven parts: the public health nursing movement, including its history in the U.S. and as a world movement; principles, education, and records; public health nursing under private auspices; public health nursing under official auspices; the public health nurse, including field nursing, supervision, and choosing public health as a specialty; nursing services, including communicable diseases; and questions of the day. The appendix offers a chronology of public health nursing. Mary Sewall Gardner (1871-1961) established the National Organization for Public Health Nursing, which merged with the National League for Nursing in 1952. For her accomplishments, she was inducted into the American Nurses Association Hall of Fame in 1986. From the nursing history collection of Sarah Abrams. Hardcover, good condition. 476 pages, octavo.
