Mrs. Charlotte M. Heilman,
Director of Nursing,
Dominican Chapter, A.R.C.,
Santo Domingo City, D. R.
My dear Mrs. Heilman:
Your letter of January 26th, sent back by the
Pilot boat was received some days ago. I am hastening to reply
because of the insurance question.
I have taken this matter up at the Staff Council
and also with Mr. Swift, personally, and I hope that something will
come out of it. I wonder if any type of local insurance has been
established which you might obtain upon arrival, at either the expense
to yourself or to the Chapter? Chapters have occasionally assumed
M
this responsibility. I sincerly hope that something will come
Ithave discussed the group insurance for years, and am a firm baliever
in the development of some plan whereby our nurses and other workers
who are assigned to hasardous positions may be satisfactorily covered.
Mr. Bicknell has returned, and tells me that he
left Santo Domingo before you arrived. He was very much disappointed,
because he had wanted to meet you.
A cable and letter regarding the successor for
has been received. I doubt very much whether we will be able secure
Miss Hunt, together with an agreement endorsed by various officials, to
any nurses of the type desired under the arrangement. Transportation
only from port of embarkation would restrict our possibilities very
uncertain seriously, rated from circumstances and their very home few to as nurses a port those are of which embarkation, prepared inevitably to pay especially surround discuss under them in the
expensive railroad such
Santo Domingo. As soon as I have had an opportunity to
matter with Mr. Bicknell we will send a cable to the Chapter.
Sincerely yours,
National Director, Nursing Service.
