Qualification of Superintendents and Assistant Superintendents of District Nurses Home.—We have provided for a difference in some cases between the salaries of Super- intendents or Assistant Superintendents who have successfully completed an approved course of district training and those who have not. We wish to make it clear, however, that we are of opinion that only nurses who have successfully completed such a course should in future be appointed to these posts. 2. Additional payment to Superintendent, Assistant Superintendent, and Senior District Nurse, where midwifery regularly undertaken.—lf{ midwifery is regularly undertaken at a District Nurses Home, the scale of salary of the Superintendent and Assistant Superintendent or of the Senior District Nurse, as the case may be, shall be increased by £10 throughout. 3. Nurses to be counted for purpose of determining salary of Superintendent of District Nurses Home ; and position where Home is District Nursing Training Home and also approved for training of pupil midwives —Our recommendations provide that the salary of a Super- intendent of a District Nurses Home shall be determined by the number of nurses accommo- dated in the Home. In calculating the number of nurses for this purpose, all nursing staff, including student district nurses and pupil midwives, should be counted. , {] See Note 2 for extra payment where midwifery is regularly undertaken ; and Note 5 for additional allowance if required to possess health visitors” qualification. i ** See Note 5 to this Table for additional allowance if required to possess health visitors’ qualification.$
