Nurses For Children: Each clinical division in the hospital requires some special facilities and equipment—for example, operating rooms for surgeons, labor and delivery rooms for obstetricians, nurseries for pediatricians, and special exercise rooms and equipment for rehabilitation specialists. Special facilities and equipment are also needed in the emergency unit.
Nursing. Nursing services are essential to care for the personal needs of patients, to assist the doctors in their diagnosis and treatment, and periodically to record their observations of patients. Nursing departments are usually organized by patient wards, or units. For each unit there is a head nurse, or charge nurse, under whom are a number of registered Nurses for children and in some cases student Nurses for children, practical Nurses for children, aides, and orderlies.
New fears are acquired as new experiences are associated with earlier experiences that induced fears. Ignorant Nurses for children may implant fears of policemen, burglars, animals, or ghosts in order to secure obedience. The temptation to use fear for this purpose is strong because it is such an easy way to control the behavior of little children. Shutting them in a dark closet after having created a fear of the dark, telling them the bears will get them, telling them the policeman will carry away bad children—such disciplinary devices belong to the Dark Ages. Use of fear as a means of controlling children's behavior is likely to produce two kinds of children: the defiant child who disbelieves the threats and refuses to be intimidated; and the nervous, timid child who is afraid of innumerable things. |
