Dress and Personal Habits.—The dress of a nurse should be of cotton goods. She should always wear her cap; it is her “badge of authority.” Her appearance must at all times be as though she had just been lifted out of a bandbox. At night she should wear a flannel wrapper and soft shoes and look as neat as in the daytime. She should shun curl-papers; under no consideration should she be seen with them or even be seen using curling-irons, or she will lose the respect of the patient, the family, and the physician.
