A Couple Lines from History

In looking through some old journals, I came across this letter to the editor in the American Journal of Nursing, published October 1, 1912 by G.L. who was apparently an obstetrical nurse in Kansas:

"Dear Editor: Obstetrics in private nursing differs from obstetrics in hospital nursing only as the surroundings differ. The actual care of the mother and child are identical."

Times haven't really changed so much...
