SECTION V.—SUMMARY (for reference) of Nursing
Arrangements, Hospitals, and other Institutions
available for the District (including
Report on Maternity and Child Welfare Work).
In tabular form is set out a summary of the nursing arrangements,
hospitals and other institutions available for the
district:—
Professional Nursing in the Home. There are four Nursing
Associations in the district, as follows :—
The Woolwich and Plumstead Nursing Association, 22
Nightingale Place, Woolwich, S.E. 18.
The Silvertown and North Woolwich District Nursing
Association, Saville Road, Silvertown, E. 16.
The Eltham District Nursing Association,
(Nurse), Miss M. Alexander, 13 The Broadway,
Eltham.
St. Luke's Parish, Eltham,
(Nurse), Miss Bloomfield, 83 Congreve Road, Eltham.
The areas in which these Nursing Associations work are
sufficiently well-defined by their names. The Woolwich and
Plumstead District Nursing Association, in addition to doing
general nursing in the district, provide nurses for the London
County Council School Clinics and for the Garrison. When
an allowance is made for this, it is estimated that the whole
time of seven to eight nurses is devoted to general nursing
in the district.
