Priorities for nurses have been established by the National Nursing Council for War Service to guide members of the profession in making a decision as to whether or not they should be with the armed forces or on the civilian front. According to the council, nurses who are in a hospital school or nursing as administrator, instructor, supervisor, head nurse or general staff nurse; in a hospital as administrator, supervisor or head nurse or general staff nurse; in a public health position as administrator instructor, supervisor, staff or industrial nurse or in a post graduate course preparing for any of the above positions, should remain on the civilian front.
