be; a place where mothers may bring their babies and
preschool children for weighing, measuring, checking
up of defects; where advice as to formula making,
bathing the baby, clothing, etc., will be given and where
the prospective mother may come for advice as to her
diet, preparation for the lying in period, etc. Saturday
mornings are given over to catching up loose ends of
office work. I hope to have several clinics this coming
year, among them chest, heart, asthma, orthopedic and
cancer.
In closing, the nurse and her committee wish to
extend their grateful appreciation to the doctors who
willingly give professional advice to patients in need,
to the dentists who have given free dental inspection
and to the individuals who have assisted in clinics and
conferences, to the Red Cross for their generous assistance
to those in need of food, clothing and social
adjustment, to the county officers and to fraternal
orders and also to thank the interested citizens who by
their loyal support have made this work possible.
Respectfully submitted,
Piscataquis County Nursing Service,
Mrs. LOUISE BLAKE NICHOLS, R. N.,
Public Health Nurse.
