<td class="details"><h5>Mending Surgical Gloves</h5>Explains how junior nurses would mend surgical gloves when working in <span>THEATRE</span>; washed gloves, inflated by blowing to find holes, stuck on patches made from oldest gloves. Put each glove on rack outside to dry, then re-tested, powdered and rolled up ready for sterilising. The most mended gloves were used by the 'dirty nurse' in theatre.</td>

<td class="details"><h5>Responsibility for Food</h5>Responsible for cleanliness around locker though there were cleaners. Spent time in DIET KITCHEN learning about special diets.

<tr>
<td class="time">004'30"</td>
<td class="details"><h5>Matrons, Supervisors and Ward Sisters</h5>Explains about <span>WARD SISTER's</span> presence and control, she 'definitely had a place', contrasts this with today.

Describes <span>NIGHT SUPERVISOR's</span> visits. Expected nurses to know all patients. 'They were all powerful but they also knew everything .... set high standard and lived up to it'.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="time">006'25"</td>

Nurses did lots of hands-on basic nursing care for patients in bed who on the whole, were dressed in hospital-issue night wear. Remembers basic nursing care, washing, feeding. Talks of the 'four-hourly backs': washed with soap and water, rubbed then finished with methylated spirits. Recalls that there were not many pressure sores (disturbance as someone enters room).</td>
