Synopsis

This historic medical text examines fever, a common symptom of several diseases that may require various cures and discusses in great detail the importance of a nurse who fully understands her duties and carries them out with accuracy, intelligence, and compassion. Practical suggestions are given for the nurse to keep the patient clean and comfortable so as to promote healing and provide specific instructions on the administration of food, drink, and medicine, how to read and respond to the patient's conditions, and how to communicate observations with the physician so that actions can be taken to make adjustments to the care plan. The author stresses the importance of keeping an accurate record of the patient's vital signs, bowel movements, and any other pertinent data that may assist the physician in making decisions that will best benefit the patient.
